This is a very open ended question. At a very basic level, you need to
configure an arm tool chain, and then use it to compile a kernel. This
is a collection of utilities including binutils, gcc and glibc (or
other c library). This page sums it up well,http://www.schnozzle.org/~coldwell/toolchain/
.
There are alot of resources out there. For developing for ARM with
uclibc, chceckouthttp://buildroot.uclibc.org. Another project, which
is similar to buildroot, is OpenEmbedded. OpenEmbedded provides a
quite comprehensive system that will build your kernel, packages, put
together a rootfs and even configure a bootloader. That would be athttp://www.openembedded.org/.
A bootloader that works on ARM systems is U Boot, which is athttp://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/WebHome. Also on that site is the
Embedded Linux Development Kit, another develoment system that can
work with ARM targets.
A great book that covers development and deployment of embedded linux
systems, including ARM targets, is Building Embedded Linux Systems by
Karim Yaghmour.
Good Luck!
Many thanks,Yaghmour's book is quite useful and it is a good resource
to frequently refer to. -Wei
