I did the following, and it worked fine. make distclean ./configure --arch=arm --cross-prefix=arm-linux-gnu- make ./configure --arch=arm64 --cross-prefix=aarch64-linux-gnu- make clean && make But anyway I would suggest you do your 'make clean' or even a 'make distclean' *before* running configure the second time. Otherwise you'll leave old object files around from the previously configured arch. I.e. you want 'make clean' to apply to the currently built config, not the new (not yet built) config. drew > > I would expect that after 'make clean', the object and binary files > are removed.
