Compile on different system?
list Simon Lenz
Hello all! last week, i've installed a little webserver on my NAS (a mybook world 1TB white line). And everthing works perfectly:) Now i want to add xymon as a monitoring software on it. But my problem is, that i haven't got the gcc. (see a list of available packages: http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs05q1armel/cross/unstable/Packages ) Is it possible to compile everything on my desktopPC (x86) and simply move it to the nas? I haven't compiled something personally in my life, so please be a bit tolerant;D PS: The NAS has an ARM architecture. It is linux based with busybox. greetings from germany Simon

That works for me. I've got a compiled xymon client that I just copy down to linux installs. So far it's worked on everything I've tested it on, including esx servers.

No, for that you need to cross compile. On x86 ubnutu you can install a gcc compiler that will generate arm binary's. I think you need: g++-arm-linux-gnueabi - The GNU C++ compiler for armel architecture gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi - The GNU C compiler for armel architecture I never tried this before. You can also tried the arm compiled binary from debian: http://packages.debian.org/search?source=1&arch=arm&keywords=xymon Stef

Okay thanks for the ideas, but after a bit of searching i've found a simpler issue for the gcc problem: switching the ipkg feed...... (as i already said i'm a complette layman;) ) nevertheless thanks for your time/help greetings
