This is how I build fpc trunk cross compiler:
echo "Building fpchf-linux from trunk"
SUBARCH=armv7
CROSSOPT="-dREVINC -dFPC_ARMHF -CX -CpARMV7A -CfVFPV3_D16 -OpARMV7A
-O2 -OoFASTMATH -XX -Xs"
//CROSSOPT="-dREVINC -dFPC_ARMHF -CX -CpARMV6 -CfVFPV2 -OpARMV6 -O2
-OoFASTMATH -XX -Xs"
OPT="-dFPC_ARMHF"
make clean buildbase CROSSINSTALL=1 OS_TARGET=linux CPU_TARGET=arm
OPT="$OPT" OVERRIDEVERSIONCHECK=1 CROSSOPT="$CROSSOPT"
BINUTILSPREFIX=arm-linux-gnueabihf- || exit 1
sudo make installbase CROSSINSTALL=1 OS_TARGET=linux CPU_TARGET=arm
OPT="$OPT" OVERRIDEVERSIONCHECK=1 CROSSOPT="$CROSSOPT"
BINUTILSPREFIX=arm-linux-gnueabihf- || exit 1
sudo mv /usr/local/lib/fpc/3.1.1/ppcrossarm
/usr/local/lib/fpc/3.1.1/ppcrossarmhf
Please note that the rtl is fine for Raspberry Pi 2 (the new quad core
board) as this is a version that uses armv7 commandset.
For old Raspberry Pi you need to use the commented out CROSSOPT, this
will create rtl that is suitable for old raspberries.
You should not try to use fpc 2.6.4 as this compiler does not support
armhf. Most likely the 3.0 pre-release will compile the same way, but I
never tried.
You need to have cross-binutils installed as you need
arm-linux-gnueabihf-* tools to be able to successfully compile.

Hi,

Is there a better guide on how to do this than:
http://wiki.freepascal.org/fpcup#Linux_ARM_cross_compiler ? specifically
as far as this

* Linux/Unix build or install the relevant crossbinutils (Linux, unix)
With Ubuntu/Debian:
- apt-get install binutils-arm-linux-gnueabihf

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?
I'm pretty sure it's possible with Lazarus, but I can't give exact
instructions, because I rarely use Lazarus, I prefer using the compiler
itself directly from the command line.
However, this page has some pointers:

Looks like I need to recompile FPC (or make a special compile of it)
to be able to compile to ARM.
That URL you gave me says how to compile it, but not sure about if I
need to have some special cross compile code for the
CROSSBINDIR=/home/user/lazarus/fpc/binutils/ portion of it, or do I
just point it to where Linux installed the items installed with
apt-get install binutils-arm-linux-gnueabihf ?
Thanks once again!

So I tried to compile a special version of FPC for arm, I installed:
binutils-2.25
And I got as far as this:
