[yocto] How to build 32-bit x86 host 32-bit powerpc target cross compiler, on a 64-bit x86 host

[Lu, Lianhao]

Please set SDKMACHINE to "i686" in your local.conf when you building the cross canadian compiler.

Subject: [yocto] How to build 32-bit x86 host 32-bit powerpc target cross compiler, on a 64-bit x86 host

Hi,
      I am running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64-bit. I have a colleague who doesn't have a 64-bit linux installation. What I'd like to be able to do is to build a 32-bit host 32-bit powerpc target cross compiler, on my 64-bit machine.

How can I configure Yocto to do this?

At the moment, I've already generated a meta-toolchain SDK, which installs into :

/opt/poky/1.2+snapshot/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/ppc440-poky-linux/

How can I generate a the 32-bit hosted cross compiler on my 64-bit yocto build machine? I really didn't quite understand the term canadian-cross compiler, until now!! ;-) Now I know!!

Best regards,

Elvis Dowson
