Hi Andy, 

You are right. You make me know the key to my problem and lead me to a right 
way to solve the issue. Thanks for your warm-heartedness. You are my hero. ;)

Now,I have turned to cross-tool to solve my problem, and I have run demo-
i686.sh and mkdir as its tips. At the beginning of re-compiling all toolchains 
needed, everything goes fine, but a make problem occured during the process. 

I'm not sure if it is a bug of cross-tool or cause of my wrong settings. I 
have a snapshot for you, can you check into it for me? And then i will look 
for the solution.

the weblink of my snapshot:

below is my demo-i686.sh(i didn't uncommet the #, just used default gcc 
version):
