Re: [gentoo-embedded] Building Crosscompiler for Embedded System

["Stanisław Raczyński" <sraczynski@op.pl>]

You might want to read a small howto I've created as documentation to my 
group project at a university 
(http://www.eti.pg.gda.pl/katedry/ksa/pracownicy/Stanislaw.Raczynski//embedded_gentoo_on_kb92xx_howto.pdf), 
sections 2, 3 and appendices. Perhaps it will give you some ideas. 
Beware though, it is incomplete and a bit chaotic.

Best wishes,
Stanislaw Raczynski
