It actually refuses to guess somthings and leaves you to set them in the environment. Unfortunaetly I used Google to see what other people had done cross-compiling it for ARM only to get information which no longer applies. I guess bash can't really include defaults for every possible target, I don't know what could be a solution here other than to document what works for a given target, perhaps special case in the Gentoo ebuild script(!). ;-) > > > The other thing was the kernel headers. 2.6.16 > > headers, including those provided by gentoo are broken with respect to ARM > > EABI.

I haven't checked but I suspect 2.6.16.x would be fine. Status update: I know have a have a pretty usable base installation of Gentoo though I have a little problem still. My spectrum24 wifi card isn't working now, the firmware load fails - not sure if it's a problem with the pcmcia/cf driver or what. Where should I take this? linux-arm-kernel? The orinoco list? A Gentoo dev list??? It's the only way I have of networking it at the moment so it's a little awkward!
