Hi
I tried the "make all install"  for binuitls and gcc separately. It works=
 fine. Thanks for the help.
But will this approach be suitable for bulding a cross compiler as well??=
?

I tried building a cross compiler for targetname "i586-pc" (mymachine is =
i686-pc). The binutils got built without any problems. But the gcc could =
not be installed.
It could not find the target archiver and so libgcc.a was not up. =

If the intermediate (xgcc) compiler is able to find the target assembler =
it should be able to find the target archiver also??
Is there any work around???
please help.

thanks in advance

Also i am not able to connect to http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC/FAQ-4.html=
