crosstool for PPC860


Hello Dan,

Thanks a lot!

I have successfully used the script set to build a toolchain for Motorola
PPC 860.. I had already downloaded the sources for gcc-3.3.1, glibc-2.3.2,
binutils-2.14, and linux-2.4.22. All I really did was:
 - created a powerpc-860.dat files to add extra flag, viz.
GLIBC_EXTRA_CONFIG="--without-fp"
 - modify the corresponding gcc-xxx-glibc-xxx.dat file to reflect the
versions I wanted/had
 - alter one of the demo-xxx.sh files to read in the above dat file
 - run the demo-xxx.sh!

I am able to compile the traditional helloworld.. This being my first
attempt/experience at cross-building, it was a great feeling to see "file
./a.out" saying that it indeed is a PowerPC binary :-)
The  next step would be to build the kernel and see if the toolchain indeed
is what I want!

Thanks
Venkatraj

Permissions problem.  Fixed, thanks!

Please do post on the crossgcc mailing list when you finally get
your toolchain working, or if you have problems.
