Move to Wordpress

I've finally decided to move my blog to Wordpress, so from now on you can find my blog here.

Using the Linaro Toolchain on Fedora

Linaro is doing a great job improving Linux on ARM and its toolchain is amazing. I've been using it as my primary ARM compiler for some time so I wanted to install it on my Fedora 16 box.

They don't provide RPMs of their tools so you have to either compile it from source or use Michael Hope LSB compatible prebuilt binaries.

For anyone insterested here is a mini-how:

$ yum install redhat-lsb.i686
$ wget -c http://people.linaro.org/~michaelh/incoming/binaries/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabi-2012.01-20120112+bzr2334~linux.tar.bz2
$ tar -xvf gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabi-2012.01-20120112+bzr2334~linux.tar.bz2
$ mv gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabi-2012.01-20120112+bzr2334~linux /opt/gcc-linaro
$ echo "export PATH=\$PATH:/opt/gcc-linaro/bin" > /etc/profile.d/gcc-linaro.sh
