I'd like to build a gcc compiler on a i686 system for ARMv5b that runs on the ARMv5b. I've got the corsstool-0.37 to build the armv5b compiler that runs on i686, but the next step is to use that compiler to build a compiler that can run natively on the ARM platform (Linux 2.4.21 if that is of interest). This last step is confusing since I don't see the three step requirement.
Basically, the --build is the i686 system and the --host and --target are one in the same ... want a compiler that runs on ARM to generate for ARM. Is this essentially a Canadian Cross compiler? If so, do I really have to build three compilers, when the first two are really the same?
You're not really building a canadian cross, since your host and target are the same. (Canada had three political parties, I think, is where the name came from.) So you can get away with building just two compilers.
