Hi Andy,

I have modified demo-i686.sh to use eval `cat i686.dat gcc-3.4.5-glibc-
2.3.2.dat` sh all.sh --notest instead of default gcc-4.1.0, and demo-i686.sh 
can be finished this time.

But i don't know what next to do or how to use the toolchains re-compiled by 
crosstool for compiling linux kernel under cygwin for x86 platform? Thanks.

The crosstool-howto made me so confused...

Sorry for my poor english understanding... =.=|

Regards,
Leo
