RE: Cross compiler for mips-elf

[Vermeulen Jan <Jan dot Vermeulen at siemens dot com>]

Hi,

2 very interesting links:
http://www.kegel.com/crosstool/ 
http://billgatliff.com/twiki/bin/view/Crossgcc/WebHome

If you are planning to use the simulator, I recommend using the newlib as it
is more suited for embedded 'while(1) Operating Systems'.

Best regards,
Jan
