Hi Tony,

    If you're wanting to build your own toolchain you should take a look at
Karim's book: Building Embedded Linux Systems. It's a fantastic book & goes
into great detail on building toolchains. He also has a great example on an
MPC860 toolchain build described on his website... embeddedtux.org. I was
able to use the notes to successfully build a toolchain for an MPC823...
which is fairly similar... from my understanding thus far. If you really
want to have personalized instruction... I highly recommend taking one of
Karim's classes. I took one a few weeks ago.... It was fantastic and was a
great starting point for me to starting building my own tools... instead of
being tied to a particular vendors typically outdated tools.

Best Regard,

Edwin Bland
