I've not used ELDK in a few years but if you can build a cross compiler
with it you should be able to use that cross compiler to build busybox
and the other software in the CLFS books.

If you build busybox static then you won't have to worry about libraries
and such, which might be a good way to start.

I'm not sure of what the mainline Linux status is for Exynos 4412 but
there's no reason it can't run Linux.  If mainline doesn't work, find a
vendor tree and use that, just make sure the kernel headers you install
are as old or older than the kernel you run.
