Hi all, I am trying to make a cross compiler that will produce Linux executables in an Ultrix(4.4) machine. I'm using Gcc, but since I this is sort of a challenge (special project for school) this is something completely new for me. I followed the gcc-HOWTOs, READMEs and INSTALLs, but they don't seem to be very helpful. I get confused when I have to specify HOST,BUILD and TARGET, as well as what machine do I have to use to generate the crosscompiler. Do I have to do this all in my(school's) Ultrix box or in my Linux box? Any help will be inmensely appreciated. I have looked around but I haven't seen any helpful docs around. Any suggestions? The ultrix machine is a dec-mips-ultrix and I'm running linux as i586-intel-linux.
