Re: Build tips for arm cross toolchain

[Jacky Lam <jackylam dot gsl at gmail dot com>]

Dear all,

	I have successfully built the toolchain by crosstool-ng. (A really
great tool. Although I still don't who to make it.....:()

	I plan to add CYGWIN host to this tool. Any advice before I start?

	Thanks.

BR,
Jacky
