If you are running GNU/Linux on the board, use "powerpc-linux-gnu". If you are using some bare bones embedded OS, use "powerpc-eabi". Don't worry about filling in the '*' fields; just omit the fields entirely. You may want to consider using the --with-cpu or --with-arch options mentioned in the installation documentation. Ian
