I have roughly followed an online tutorial (see [1]). The difference is, I am building gcc 7.2, but other versions of gcc would do. My problem is at the stage of building the full gcc cross-compiler the build stops >The three step builds with a "bootstrap GCC", "newlib" and "full GCC" >should be some remnant from the old ages. Building both GCC and newlib (plus gmp, mpc, mpfr etc) in only one step should work. Thanks, I should add a couple of things, I couldn't build the newlib 2.5 sources, I hit the same error as described here: https://sourceware.org/ml/newlib/2016/msg01117.html I instead used the newlib 2.3 sources. The other thing is that my test with gcc 6.2 was actually done using crosstool-ng http://crosstool-ng.github.io/ Which automates the cross-build. I don't know if this uses the three step build method, it may not. Regards, Richard
