Try svn trunk, that's supported. Please also note that this is marked "EXPERIMENTAL". Also note that those bare-metal toolchains are /truly/ bare-metal, in that there will be *no* C library at all in the toolchain, not even newlib. From my understanding, a bare-metal compiler/toolchain is the strict minimum to compile, build and assemble source code. You are then on your own to provide "system support libraries". For example, a bootloader does not need a C library to build (APEX at least doesn't); the kernel should be buildable by a bare-metal compiler, alas there's ACPI stuff that relies on the compiler setting some defines that are available only on target tuples like *-*-linux-* (or so is my understanding of the issue). I managed to build a workable ARM Linux 2.6.26 (or was it .25?) with such a truly bare-metal toolchain, but without ACPI. Maybe I should poke the ACPI people about the issue... Regards, Yann E.
