Thanks It's true that in general the fact that you can relocate a toolchain across machines only applies to the installation directory. It does not apply to the sysroot. (It may work if the sysroot is inside the installation directory, I'm not sure). Anyhow, you can use the --sysroot option at runtime. [Prashant] Does that mean I need to create a complete path which gcc expects starting from the sysroot with this option. [Prashant] <some-path-on-target>/<prefix given while configuring> Thanks Ian
