>Don, did you first build a basic toolchain for the uclibc target?  The gcc/binutils MUST be something along the lines of x-x-x-uclibc.  For i686 it'd be i686-pc-linux-uclibc.  It'll >obviously error out since the gcc/binutils on your system are looking for objects using glibc in /lib and /usr/lib/gcc.  Basicly the steps for changing your toolchain is.

Daniel, thanks for the tips and pointers - between the embedded & sysroot books I figured out what was
going wrong where, and now have the cross-tools all compiled cleanly and (seemingly) sane. When I 
arise again I'll finish the build off, get it booting etc etc and do some further testing to make sure it *is*
indeed sane. I've a couple of questions too, but they can wait....and I'll get my notes sorted as well if
it all checks out. Right now though, I gotta get some sleep.....  

Regards,

Don
