Re: [archlinux] Port to the ARM.
Sorry, I didn't have enough time to browse detail of ur web pages. But i noticed that it uses buildroot, right? Cause I'm currently use buildroot to other platform, and OE seems rather difficult for me. And it takes so much time, I'm still compiling... :( It uses Scratchbox, something that makes crosscompiling easier. This is not OE-based. But it takes much time anyway. checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details.

For me there is no lines with 'Unidentified executable detected', it's may be because of toolchain. Can you run it?

Re: [archlinux] Port to the ARM.
I'll second that, if there's something that I can test, let me know. I can help put together PKGBUILDs or test different builds.

Re: [archlinux] Port to the ARM.
That's nice to hear. I wrote down instructions: how to prepare toolchain, buildroot and how to build packages on wiki (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/User:Hiciu). There is prebuild working version of toolchain (and instructions how to build it, but no PKGBUILD for toolchain yet) on this wiki too. Feel free to test them. If these instructions would work for you then I think we should meet on IRC to talk (where to keep packages / set up repositories, what we wan't to do: Archlinux for ARM or Archlinux for Freerunner ;], maybe let know about it on Arch forums (http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=59638), what about posting this howto on ArchWiki and other). -- hiciu ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: [archlinux] Port to the ARM.
OK, I'm having a bit of trouble getting the environment going. As per your instructions on the wiki, I have gotten to the sb2-init step, but it gives me this: Finished writing sb2.config checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for gcc... gcc configure: WARNING: In the future, Autoconf will not detect cross-tools whose name does not start with the host triplet. If you think this configuration is useful to you, please write to autoc...@gnu.org. checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details.
