I modified

Code:

eval `cat arm-softfloat.dat gcc-3.4.4-glibc-2.3.3.dat` LINUX_DIR=linux-2.4.19 sh all.sh --notest

to

Code:

eval `cat arm-softfloat.dat gcc-3.4.2-glibc-2.3.3.dat` LINUX_DIR=linux-2.4.19 sh all.sh --notest

and removed the kernel patch downloaded from iRex.
Crosstool can build gcc now. But I don't know if it does build working app for iLiad. Further test is needed.

Added:

Just had a thought.
Crosstool will download required files and put them in /home/crosstool. For example, kernel 2.4.19 is downloaded as "linux-2.4.19.tar.bz2". Since I iRex's kernel patch is not working on crosstool, if I replace it with patched kernel source from iRex, maybe it will work.
