I have been using these notes as a starting > point : http://www.benmont.com There are very bad suggestions in this /tutorial/: - manually editing the .config file This is a Bad Thing (TM). The configuration of crosstoll-Ng is done by running one of the configurators: ct-ng menuconfig or: ct-ng nconfig Options are set in the .config file because they've been set in the menuconfig. Manually overrding them is wrong. The configuration must be fixed from menuconfig. - Static linking impossible on the host system [...] The solution is wrong. This error is because something in crostool-NG wants to do some static linking. This should be disabled, using the menuconfig. In this case, the option wanting the static link is: CT_CC_STATIC_LIBSTDCXX which is selected in: C compiler ---> [*] Link libstdc++ statically into the gcc binary If you disable this option, then static linking is no longer needed, and this error will vanish. Also, the '-Bstatic' issue will also disapear. We now have better code and error messages in the repository for this problem. It will be available in the next release. - gdb's 'readchar: Got EOF' error: Do not edit the .config file manually. Use 'ct-ng menuconfig' to change the config options. If you know how to contact the author, then please forward him/her this mail, and tell him/her to ask for help on the mailing list. We're usually trying to answer issues as much as we can (but being a volunteer endeavour for me, it's on a time-permit basis; others can/will help, too). Regards, Yann E.
