I just found this list. Thanks Wookey for the link to http://people.debian.org/~debacle/cross.html that looks useful.
I've been looking at various distributions - Gentoo, Rock, lnx-bbc, and ELDK - and have come to the conclusion that if I can make Debian work for my embedded development purposes, I should. That would give me access to the largest number of up to date packages possible, I think.
My target environment is a cluster of embedded systems of cpu type ppc405, ppc750, sh4, and x86, with system RAM ranging from 32MB to 256MB, without hard drives or flash. I need for the moment to be able to run both with and without filesystems mounted from an NFS server. I want to support both cross-development and self-hosted development. I currently use busybox, and would like to keep using it if possible.
After trying to grok the build systems of Rock Linux, lnx-bbc, and ELDK, I look forward to the challenge of understanding the Debian build system :-) - Dan
