Dear James,

i did the following as u said:

./configure --target=arm-linux --enable-arm --prefix=/root/Desktop/pppbuild

make CC=arm-linux-gcc LD=arm-linux-ld

it compiles without any error;

but when i do:
make install i get the following error:

install -d -m 755 /root/Desktop/pppbuild/sbin
install -d -m 755 /root/Desktop/pppbuild/share/man/man8
cd chat; make  install
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/Desktop/ppp-2.4.4/chat'
mkdir -p /root/Desktop/pppbuild/sbin /root/Desktop/pppbuild/share/man/man8
install -s -c chat /root/Desktop/pppbuild/sbin
strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file

You need to add STRIP=arm-linux-strip and possibly INSTALL=arm-linux-install to the make install command line. If that fails, hack the -s out of the install command in chat/Makefile and strip the file by hand.

`/root/Desktop/pppbuild/sbin/chat'
install: strip process terminated abnormally
make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/ppp-2.4.4/chat'
make: *** [install-progs] Error 2

thank you

The configure script isn't one that supports cross compilation,
unfortunately. So it is likely that you built files for your native desktop
system.

To cross compile, do
make CC=arm-linux-gcc LD=arm-linux-ld

but make sure that your compiler uses its own version of the system headers,
not your desktop versions.
