I notice we have a 'ppc-make' to help people cross compile bebox
kernels at:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/bebox/tools/ppc-make
It would be nice if we could include wrappers like this into the
cross packages, then we can just direct people to
- install cross/arm-netbsd
- cd /sys/arch/arm32/conf
- config GENERIC
- cd ../compile/GENERIC
- arm-make
or similar.
a) What do people think
b) Do we need per arch or per cpu - we only need one
cross/m68k-netbsd package, but individual amiga-make etc
wrapper that set MACHINE appropriately would be useful for
compiling userland files?
