(/me too ;) I cannot find the cross-compile howto anymore, but anyway. Please feel free to add this to the wiki (i won't do it). A cross-compiler can be used to build binaries for an architecture other than the compile-hosts arch. For [[http://gcc.gnu.org][GCC]] there is [[http://kegel.com/crosstool/][crosstool]] which can be used to bootstrap your cross-compiler. add short description on bootstrapping a cross-chain manually here (binutils, gcc, a libc). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
