title: Cross-compile for PowerPC Linux in Windows environment
body: <p>Because of some constraints I will have to build Linux user space applications for PowerPC QorIQ (P1020) using Windows environment.</p>
  
  <p>Has anyone tried it and could recommend some toolchain (working natively in Win 7)?</p>
  
  <p>Using virtual machines for building applications is not acceptable. What can be done on VM is only kernel and rootfs preparation.
  There are some toolchains like <a href="http://gnutoolchains.com/powerpc-eabi/" rel="nofollow">http://gnutoolchains.com/powerpc-eabi/</a> however they do not provide Linux libraries. I guess I need something like powerpc-fsl-linux-gcc.exe.
   I have also tried to attach meta-mingw layer to Yocto and bitbake meta-toolchain, but I'm not sure if it's the right path - I got many build errors.</p>
