: : Referring to the "Mini-install guide" that's on the Arm web page, I've

: : some libc.a for the Arm arch), right?

: : [ADDED} the build error came in the "all" target part of building of ld, which
: : is the 7th app in that subdir (all the others went beautifully). Svn diff
: : doesn't tell me that I have any mods, and seeing as I only recently changed

: I usually use:
:
: cd /usr/src
: sudo make xdev TARGET=arm TARGET_ARCH=arm
: to do all that...
Err, got confused between the buildworld method and the xdev method:
sudo make xdev XDEV=arm XDEV_ARCH=arm
is what I use. Well, really, what I usually use is:
setenv TARGET arm
make buildworld
make buildkernel KERNCONF=blah
and then s/KERNCONF/KERNFAST/ after the first time unless I'm hacking
the config files. This just works and I don't have to think about
it. The xdev stuff is more tailored to cross building whole projects
as well (or hacking on ports support for cross build :).
