I checked google and yes, many of them were rather old (as I've seen with needing egcs).. <br />
<br />
Is there a newer tutorial or can someone walk me through it? it's kinda my first time doing anything like this.

Ok.. so after some searching, I found that I need my target to be a bare-metal MIPS CPU. elf format.<br />
<br />
I compiled binutils and things went fine.. But when I tried compiling GMP to create GCC, I got an error.. <br />
<br />
configure: error: could not find a working compiler, see config.log for details.. <br />
<br />
My target is &quot;mipsel-elf&quot; (little endian mips).. any ideas?

Look in the config log to see what test it was running.<br />
I had not heard of GMP before - what is it?<br />
Since gcc is building as a cross-compiler, it should not try to use the built compiler to build another gcc (as it would if you were building native)

I&quot;m trying to build a mips cross compiler for Ubuntu Linux.. Could someone walk me through the procedure?<br />
<br />
I tried this here <a href="http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/HOWTO/MIPS-HOWTO-9.html" rel="ugc">http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/HOWTO/MIPS-HOWTO-9.html</a>.. but I'm not finding egcs, (I'm thinking it was merged into gcc..) <br />
<br />
Does anyone have any experience on where to start and how to do this correctly?<br />
<br />
Thanks,

Kernel programming for Linux operating systems can be done with many different languages; C, C++, Python, Perl and Java, which are some of the most common languages used.There are also many different varieties of Linux, such as Ubuntu, Fedora and OpenSUSE.

Linux OS Dev

Programming includes both the specifics of the language you’re using, like Visual Basic, .NET, Java and others, but also the best practices in user experience and interfaces and the management of projects, version control and development. Other programming topics are related to web and cloud development and system and hardware programming.
