What I meant (but said poorly) was that it has pre-compiled binaries. But its fine if I can build it under cygwin. And I am thinking that I may drop the cygwin requirement, because its painful to do linux builds under it.
My preference is to use OpenEmbedded and do so under a Linux host system (any will do). As I don't want to be tied to a certain host OS, Emdebian or Gentoo-Embedded are no-go for me. I have used tools and rootfs systems like crosstool, buildroot, LFS before. There is also LTIB by Freescale, tried that?
I need to look closer at LITB - but I was guessing it didn't have PPC4xx support. Thanks! -- Brian Silverman Concept X, LLC
