Hi,
 
If you are doing this from an x86-based host (which is probably the case),
then you
need to configure and compile a cross-compiler, x86-hosted and
mips-targeted.
There are a couple of sites that specialize in keeping pre-built gcc
binaries online
for the more popular chipsets.  A good place to start might be:
 
http://www.objsw.com/ <http://www.objsw.com/> 
 
which has a CrossGCC FAQ.  This will answer a lot of questions about
configuring
and compiling, and installing a cross compiler from the GCC sources.
Another
good resource is the crossgcc maillist, which is now hosted at
sourceware.cygnus.com.
You can search the maillist archives, or subscribe to the list at:
 
http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/crossgcc/
<http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/crossgcc/> 
 
I've never completed a cross-compiler build myself, although I've tinkered
with it
in the past.  I probably can't be of much help past this point.
 
Good luck,

Subject: Why I can't make zImage!


Hi :
    I'm working with an mips embbed linux system. I download  sources from
the Internet(for mips).
    After I  make xconfig ,make dep and make clean. I put the command of
make zImage but the gcc
said it can't know the compile command for mips  . Would I recompile the gcc
or it is because of other
thing . Can anybody help me?
