I saw in "crosstool.sh", an hardcoded value fo kernel version ->
"--enable-kernel=2.4.3"
is that problematic if I am using a different Kernel, or is that just
for bootstrap-ing?


The --enable-kernel=2.4.3 sets the lower bound on the kernel
version that the toolchain can generate apps for.
If you know for sure you won't be running on any kernel
older than 2.6.0, you can change it to --enable-kernel=2.6.0,
and maybe save a tiny bit of space and speed up your syscalls a
tiny bit.
If you need to run on the 2.2 kernel, you would want to
change it to --enable-kernel=2.2.10 or something.

Most folks won't need to play with it.

I think :-)
