Correct. That should be clear from the first item listed at http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html > Then I hope it is possible to make a "remote installation" ? > This idea because I also have a much better equipped LINUX PC connected to > this server (built from UBUNTU distribution, and having GCC installed) > > Is it possible to "run" the installation of GCC on my server from my PC ? > (using the parameter "target", may be ? What is the grammar for that ? You need a cross-compiler, which will run on your PC but generate code for your arm box. You don't just run gcc with a target option, it needs to be an entirely separate installation of gcc and it will only generate code for arm. You can probably install a cross-compiler from your distro's package manager, look for a package called arm-gcc or arm-linux-gcc or something like that. > From google, I can see many people having the same problem : misleaded by > the GCC installation instructions.... What part of the instructions is misleading?
