This is pretty dated, but it may give you a starting point as to what to do next. This is about cross compiling for ARM 11. http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/misc/66149-gnu-crosscompiler-tools-arm11.html By the way, Linux has already been ported over to ARM 11. Android 1.5 runs on this quite well. http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/News/Shenzen-State-Micro-Technology/ As stated by another poster earlier, it would be a good idea to install busybox on the hardware first. It will simplify the software setup of the device considerably. Debugging for the ARM platform: http://www.dspdesignline.com/howto/218101448 By the way, Slackware does have an ARM port - but please note that I have never tried it. Neither have I tried Debian's port.
