@eureka Yep, it is a bit easier on linux (you do not have to look for a bugs in Go's linker and finding suitable cross toolchain should be easier as well), however I do not want to run VM every time I am hacking something and learning how to build a complete toolchain under cygwin on Windows (which is not using cygwin at the end) has been an interesting challenge.
@knc1 I am sorry, I do not want to get into war of words here with you. Just to make sure my intentions are clear: I am not looking for any recognition of my work. I simply shared my experience in a hope that it may save people some time. This is spare time hobby - had a bit of free time. There is nothing to recognize. Surely knowledgeable people will understand that I did not do anything original, all work is purely derivative at this point and I do not see anybody in particular I have to thank for it - with exception of outstanding work of multiple individuals (you included!) who made jailbraking Kindle possible.
