I am trying to create a GCC cross compile tool for arm usin GCC-4.8.0 but I am getting build errors. I need some guidance with creating the cross compile tool chain.

Ubuntu 12.10

Steps I followed:

1: Download GCC-4.8 from gcc-gnu.org and untar it

2: From GCC-4.8 folder I downloaded the prerequisities with command below

./contrib/download_prerequisites

3: then from a build folder I configured it using below command

../gcc-4.8.0/configure --target=arm-eabi \

--with-mode=thumb --enable-languages=c,c++ \

--with-arch=armv5te

4: make

but the build fails.

Can anyone point me to the correct configuration to create a cross compiler for ARM A9/A15

    I think seeing the error messages that appeared after you executed the make command might tell where your problem is. You'll need to post them in order for anyone to help you.

    export CC="gcc -m64"
    export CXX="g++ -m64"


    mkdir binutils-build
    cd binutils-build

    ../binutils-2.23.52/configure --prefix=/home/karthik/Learn/arm-binutils --target=arm-eabi --enable-interwork --enable-multilib

    make all install

    export PATH="$PATH:/home/karthik/Learn/arm-binutils/bin"

    cd gcc-4.8.0

    ./contrib/download_prerequisites

    cd ..

    mkdir gcc-arm-cross
    cd gcc-arm-cross
