This document is based on the work of Chris Rutter (now, sadly, deceased) who's 'Building the GNU toolchain for ARM targets' document was gospel for some time. It eventually became out of date so Wookey () updated it and gave it a substantion rewrite, adding the pre-built toolchain info at the same time. Paul Webb () did the initial conversion to DocBook, Phil Blundell () provided info on the current state of the art and comments on the draft. Jeff Sutherland () then fixed the bits that were still wrong, and now maintains the doc, along with Wookey. Thanx to all.

As well as being on-line as a stand-alone HOWTO, this document is also available as a chapter of the book: A 'Guide to ARMLinux for Developers'
