Hi,

I am trying to get a working cross-compiler going so that I can compile Jlime kernels for the 900c. My hope is that I might somehow be able to poke around with the kernel.

I've tried running crosstool on Mac OSX, Debian 4 and OpenSuse 10.3 Every time I try it, something goes wrong. So my question is, what known working development environment confgiurations exist that I can replicate? For instance X distro, version Y, with Z etc. Or am I just doing this wrong?

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks!

I built the Henchman userland and kernel using OE (open embedded). Kristoffer pushed some of the configs upstream and i went out on my own and pushed a few more into OE. So if you install and setup OE the machine (900c) and distro files (henchman) will already be there as will the kernel config/patches.

Be prepared though, as depending on how much and what you build OE can take upwards of 20 gig of space. I built both mongo and henchman including packages in about 9 gig.

Cheers.

Openembedded is the easiest. But it takes a loooong time on a 1.3ghz celeron netbook...
Or if you're only building fairly old stuff you can download gcc 3.4 here: http://jlime.com/wiki/downloads/7xx/extra?s[]=gcc

Which reminds me that I need to upload a fresh crosscompiler when I get a chance.

I just built one with OE if that's any use? Not tested though yet, and for arm gnueabi so won't compile anything for an existing distribution (i.e. Mongo).

Thanks, most likely Ill set the dev-machine to build all crosscompilers tonight so I can upload complete set (sh/arm)
