Cross-Compiler Configuration
The command
ct-ng
simplifies the work necessary to configure and build the cross-
compiler tool chain. From here, we are concerned with building the cross-compiler tools
themselves. When that process is completed, you will have populated the cross-compiler
tools into the directory
/opt/x-tools/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi
.
Before
ct-ng
can build your cross-compiler, it must first be configured:
$ cd ~/devel/staging
$ ct−ng menuconfig
If you get a “command not found” error message, check that the
PATH
variable is set
properly.
Paths and Misc Options
When the command starts up, the menu configuration screen is presented.
Press Enter, to open the Paths and Misc Options submenu.
Once in the Paths and Misc Options menu, as shown next, use the cursor key to
move down to Try Features Marked as Experimental. Once that line is highlighted, press
the spacebar to put an asterisk inside the square brackets, to select the option (pressing
space again toggles the setting).
