   I am trying to compile GCC on an x86 platform to
run natively on an embedded PPC platform.  I am able
to compile gcc as a cross compiler (to run on x86),
but can't seem to get it to cross compile gcc (to run
on ppc).  Does anyone know of a good HowTo to do this?
 I'm currently downloading the source distro of ELDK,
so if it's already in there I'll find it, but if there
It is.
is one elsewhere online please let me know.
Note that released versions of the ELDK (up  to  and  including  ELDK
3.1.1)  require  a  RedHat-7.3  build  host. Don't waste your time on
trying later Linux distros ;-)

Current top-of-tree in CVS should build under Fedora Core 4; but this
code has not been released yet - it is beta quality only.

Best regards,
