This FAQ was a big help to me when I built my cross compilers, and in an attempt to give something back I have posted DJGPP-based compilers for the Motorola M68K and Power PC, and the Hitachi SH-3 family, on my web site, http://www.objsw.com , for free download. It is a big job to build these compilers, and it might save people a lot of time to use these pre-built tools. The compilers are based on EGCS 1.03a, and were built using DJGPP version 2 so they can compile huge programs using virtual memory. They will soon be updated to EGCS 1.1b, and more embedded targets will be added as demand dictates. I have also posted versions of GDB which run on DOS and debug these embedded targets. Resources available include a mailing list called crossgcc, and also the CrossGCC FAQ, both of which are dedicated to cross-development using Gnu tools. The FAQ is at http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC , and the mailing list is mailto:crossgcc AT cygnus DOT com . The mailing list currently has over 500 subscribers. New users may subscribe to the list by sending mail to mailto:crossgcc-request AT cygnus DOT com with the word 'subscribe' in the body of the message (leave out the quotes in the message).
