Re: [Ipodlinux-devel] Will compiling with any GCC version work??

[Bernard L. <le...@bo...>]

Hi Robert,

The gcc3 that comes with gentoo will only compile stuff for your PC/mac.  For
the iPod you will need to install the arm-elf-gcc cross compiler.  Just get
the version for the uclinux.org website and install that (it just goes in
/usr/local so there is minimal pollution of your system).

This cross compiler is 2.95+arm+(?uclinux?) patches plus some specific version
of binutils.  Trying to do it yourself is simply not worth the pain.

For Mac there was a version for download but it seems to have again become
unaccessible behind some login/password.  Does anyone have a copy of the
MacOSX toolchain that was at;

<http://www.klingler.net/download/arm-linux.pkg.sit>

I'd like to put it up on sf.net so that it won't disappear anymore!

cheers,
bern.
