Help with Cross compiling

Help with Cross compiling

[Hugues Belanger]

Hi All.

I was wondering if you can offer some guidance or just point me in the
right direction.

I've been a avid LRP (linux router project) fan for many moons now and
I'm trying to port this jewel to the LART board (SA-1100) and I find myself in the
strange world of cross compiling... (I'm not a developer  so this is real scary for me)

I've downloaded the toolchain from www.handhelds.org and manage to patch
configure and compile a 2.2.14 kernel with no errors.

I then started to port the root package which contains all the libs and
basic /bin and /sbin apps...
I compiled Busybox, tinylogin, but that's it... ae, ash, ctar, etc, ... all need
extra libs and I'm not sure how to had them..

Example ae needs termcap.h it's in my  /usr/include  but the
toolchain doesn 't use it ? do I have to all these include to the
toolchain if so how ?

I've been doing a sone reading about the GNUPro toolkit, should I use it for this
project or stick with my current toolchain ?

Let me know if you can help

Thanks

P.S> Anybody out there which to join me in this project ? I might be able to compansate
for you efforts...
