When I first fired up the script I enabled an 'arm' toolchain to build and didn't realize that there were others enabled below in the file, as I didn't read it. So, this first attempt failed because I didn't have the right native compiler for one of the architectures that Dan has enabled by default. Seeing that it was building a powerpc toolchain or something that I had no use for, I read demo.sh and saw there were others enabled. I think this was a bit of knowledge I needed to gain. If I had read demo.sh carefully I would have realized this. Being able to build multiple toolchains with the script is undoubtably useful to some and demonstrating this is a good thing in my opinion. It is the more general case. I would leave the default 'demo.sh' alone. I think that there is some configuration that is required and there is just a certain amount of knowledge necessary to build toolchains, even with this great set of scripts. ------ Want more information?
