I have cross compiled 621 packages for the beagle |

http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/embedded/beagle/Packages |
| 18 |
cd .. ; for the binary pkgs if you want those. |

It all works fine using the following toolchain combo and |
| 21 |
"sys-devel/crossdev-wrappers". |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
cross-armv7a-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/binutils-2.18-r4 |
| 24 |
cross-armv7a-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/gcc-4.3.2 |
| 25 |
cross-armv7a-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/glibc-2.8_p20080602 |
| 26 |
cross-armv7a-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/linux-headers-2.6.27-r2 |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
# crossdev -S -t armv7a-softfloat-linux-gnueabi -g 4.3.2 -b .... |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Then copy this |
| 32 |
http://dev.gentoo.org/~solar/embedded/site/arm-linux-gnueabi |
| 33 |
Into /usr/share/crossdev/include/site/ |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
# Edit cflags in /usr/CHOST/etc/make.conf |
| 36 |
CFLAGS="-Os -pipe -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon |
| 37 |
-mfloat-abi=softfp -fomit-frame-pointer |
| 38 |
-I/usr/armv7a-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/usr/include/ |
| 39 |
