Clive,

I do need some help here. Please let me detail what I did:

1. I have installed Fedora 18 in a virtualbox machine on my laptop.
2. Soon after the installation I have run:

Code:
--------------------
    
  sudo yum install update
  
--------------------

3. Then 

Code:
--------------------
    
  sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
  sudo yum install rpmdevtools gcc-arm-linux-gnu lzma
  rpmdev-setuptree
  
--------------------

4. As I was getting the following error message "error: cannot open
kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm43.fc18.src.rpm: No such file or directory" I have
downloaded the src rpm and not the binary as advised by you. 

Code:
--------------------
    
  wget 
http://www.communitysqueeze.org/repo/18/testing/SRPMS/kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm43.fc18.src.rpm
  
--------------------

5. Finally I have run 

Code:
--------------------
    
  rpmbuild --rebuild --target armv7hnl --define "cross_compile arm-linux-gnu-" 
kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm43.fc18.src.rpm
  
--------------------

6. After less then 12 mins the building has been completed. Now, I am
not too sure whether everything went well or not. Indeed I don't get the
binary rpm at all as I was expecting, which is:

Code:
--------------------
    
  ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/armv7hnl/kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm41.fc18.armv7hnl.rpm
  
--------------------

Here attached the last few lines after building the kernel:

Code:
--------------------
    
  Processing files: kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm43.fc18.armv7hnl
  Provides: kernel-wand = 3.0.35-cm43.fc18 kernel-wand(armv7hnl-32) =

  + /usr/bin/rm -rf 
/home/albertone/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm43.fc18.arm
  + exit 0
  
--------------------


Do you see anything wrong?
