''I will try and add an smdk2410.conf machine file to the setup soon... not that i expect it'll be useful to a lot of people, but i'll try to at least document it so that other machines can be supported easily enough.''

''Well I just got OE set up and I've been really impressed so far.''

''OE takes all of the hassle out of cross-compiling.''
