Re: Re: Aximx30-port Digest, Vol 13, Issue 23

Hi there,

I used a program used to create cross-compiling, it is called
scrathbox<http://www.scratchbox.org>.
This could be used to compile the kernel we want to use. I was able to
prepare the configuration to compile in arm. However, I was unable to find
any information how to compile the kernel in arm. Do you know how to do
this? I know it might be a funny question but I downloaded the 2.6.17 kernel
and tried make menu config but what type of processoor is it? What is the
subarchitecture and the processor family? Do I have to bother for those if I
cross compile?

Thanks

Michel
