having never used an external toolchain to build an OE image, i
figured i'd give it a shot to build for qemuarm so, based on *minutes*
of research to see what it would take to use one from code sourcery,
what i came up with was:
1) download arm-2009q1-203-arm-none-linux-gnueabi.bin and run it to
install arm toolchain into a personal directory
2) add the following to my local.conf:
TCMODE = "external-sourcery"
EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN = "/home/rpjday/CodeSourcery/Sourcery_G++_Lite"
and that would appear to be it. i'm going to poke around the recipe
files to see *how* using an external toolchain is supported but is the
above fundamentally correct for just using this one? thanks.
