That's why I mentioned running in qemu. First, load an ARM distro inside qemu and then start building using LFS techniques.

A base LFS on new hw like this would take a while to figure out. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
