Hi,

Is there a better guide on how to do this than:

* Linux/Unix build or install the relevant crossbinutils (Linux, unix)
With Ubuntu/Debian:
- apt-get install binutils-arm-linux-gnueabihf
The various binutils executables will be available then as
arm-linux-gnueabihf-*, so you need to use parameter
-XParm-linux-gnueabihf- when invoking the compiler.
If you're using a different Linux distribution, look up a similar package
in your distribution, most bigger distros provide cross-binutils packages
these days for ARM.
You can also build cross-binutils from source, but that's not FPC specific
at all. Among many others, this GCC cross-howto explains how to build a
cross binutils (see chapter 1):
http://preshing.com/20141119/how-to-build-a-gcc-cross-compiler/
But on the RPi, instead of TARGET=aarch64-linux one has to use
TARGET=arm-linux-gnueabihf, if I'm correct.

Thanks for that Charlie, I now have that installed. Do I have to do the
compile with fpc? or can I do it via Lazarus?
