Props to the Wiki Cross-Compiler How-To

Post by astrocrep »

Just wanted to say I have successfully rebuilt my os on cygwin w/ a cross compiler from linux...

Basically, I had my OS all setup and compilable w/ a make file.

I follows the tutorial exactly, and built bin-utils 2.18 and gcc 4.2.2 (and g++)

I copied over my os tree, edited my make file to use to proper gcc and ld... did a make clean, and then a make all (Those are defined in my makefile)

And BAM, everything works perfectly!

Thanks to all who contributed to it!

Good for you... :wink:
