Hi all,

	Did anyone help me to resolve this problem , it block me a long time ,Thank you very much 
	 
	I have a toolchain that is big endian ARM, so I want to use the toolchain with the binary, not the source code , can we have some method to finish this work in yocto ? I still have no clue about this .
	I have done the below steps:
		1.modify MACHINE=qemux86 to MACHINE=qemuarm 
		2.modify the file " external-csl-toolchain_2008q3-72.bb" add a line " SRC_URI = "file://gcc-4.4.1.tar.bz2"", the gcc-4.4.1.tar.bz2 is the source code of the arm big endian toolchain
		3.then I face the some problem like this website "https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/poky/2011-February/003809.html"  ,then I add a line " LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://${COMMON_LICENSE_DIR}/MIT;md5=0835ade698e0bcf8506ecda2f7b4f302"" ,in file 						     external-csl-toolchain_2008q3-72.bb to fix this problem 
		4.now I got the below log :

  After I comment the line "#inherit libc-common" and "#inherit libc-package" the error become the below :

So , I have two questions 

1.how can I fix this problem use the source code of toolchain to build our system?
2.how can I use my binary toolchain to build my system ?Did anyone to these things before ?

This is for the *build* system (i.e. the system you are compiling on) so its likely correct.

It then goes on to look at the target of "i586-none-linux-gnu" which sounds wrong given you appear to have an armeb toolchain?

I suspect you need to target a big endian arm machine rather than
MACHINE=qemux86 which I suspect you're currently using?

Cheers,

Richard
