Wow, this seems _much_ simpler. Once you get the toolchain installed, all you have to do is set ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE appropriately? I guess the question remains for Andrew.

Or shall we just recommend emdebian to everyone? :) Thanks. /ac -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
