Okay, I went to 'http://www.bluewaternz.com/startoff/armlinux.htm',
followed all the instructions there and the glibc stuff in now
compiling. I have some more questions...
As per the instructions, it said to take all the defaults when
configuring the kernel (first time, the notes said we were 'building *.h
files'), I presume that the default of an SA1100 processor makes NO
difference on my ultimate kernel & glibc? The code produced by the
glibc compile will be generic ARM stuff?
The final step in the web listed process is to build a kernel, here is
where I should be specific about the CLPS-7500FE evaluation board
settings, right? What ARM "model" is the 7500, I think I saw a posting
that it was the ARM6? What other settings should I make?
I am a bit lost with the ARM, it all seems a bit overwhelming
(distinctly foriegn) to an intel + 8051 embedded systems programmer.
TIA
