title: Canadian Cross binutils To ARM
body: <p>I'm using <a href="http://jlime.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">JLime</a> on my HP Jornada 720 that uses a ARM processor. I've already have a <a href="http://jlime.com/mw4/index.php/Download_j700#Crosscompilers" rel="nofollow noreferrer">cross-compiled <em>gcc</em> for x86</a>(<em>arm-linux-gcc</em>). The idea of what I want to do is very difficult to understand, then take a look at this chart:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>arm-linux-gcc(at my Ubuntu laptop) -> binutils to run on a ARM processor(targeted to compile mips-elf while on my ARM device)</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I want to make a <em>binutils</em> to run on a ARM Linux device that will compile programs to MIPS Linux.</p>
  
  <p>My questions are:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>How I need to <code>./configure</code> this?</li>
  <li>I need to use a extra parameter to <em>make</em> or change anything on the MakeFile?</li>
  <li>Did you understood what I want to do? <strong>;-)</strong></li>
  </ul>
