The goal is to release a build system which allows customers to easily develop 
applications for our SBC's distribution.

I went the cross compiler route because I am somewhat familiar with building 
cross-gcc's for different architectures (Coldfire and HCS12) so I figured 
building one for our SBC's would be easy and useful.

I now see that I didn't know what I was talking about.

Since I'm use to building on different architectures, I have no experience 
with the chroot route, but maybe that's best........I'm certainly open to 
suggestions. Do you know of any good howto's out there?

My only problem with it is can I do it entirely from a Makefile? Will my IDE's 
still work if I chroot while building from them?

thx
