Hopefully this will be enough to start.
igorsk, is there an ARM compiler product you recommend? If it's like the stuff I've done before on GPS I had a compiler that could produce binaries for different processors. I don't recall it's name. There are probably freeware compilers and linkers available but the commercial product we had then was an all-in-one which had a nice IDE for editing and the outputs from it all did not require smoke-and-mirrors to be used to do the same. In other words, some freeware options can need many utilities to be run to get to the point of final assembly. I'd prefer a 'professional' package where possible. Do you know of such a beast?
