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.

Thanks in advance,
