what did I wrong? I suppose it would scream if I had no cross-compiler installed?
But the configure checks vs. all those armv5-libs succeed, so…?

Easiest way is to do it through the unslung build process documented here.

That builds the cross compiler, necessary libs, etc.

You could probably get it to compile without it by setting CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc.


$ export CC=/path/to/cross-cc
$ export CFLAGS=-I/path/to/cross/includes
$ export DLFLAGS=-L/path/to/cross/libs
$ ./configure --with-nslu2 --enable-sqlite --host=arm5b

Still think the best way is with unslung though — it will build all the prereq libs and stuff for you, including any hackery you have to have to cross compile it.
