Re: Crosscompiling Python for sh4

[Phani Teja Kuruganti <tejdot at yahoo dot com>]

Thank you Mr. Brown.
 I have tried all the combinations but still the

system, it should actually not! should i make any
major changes in the configure script other than
setting up the crosscompilers? 

thanking you again
