No. You can use QEMU ARM emulator, which the installer script sets up by default. If you run into a specific problem, like some instructions not supported, then consider sbrsh. sshfs support is on the works. Scratchbox Remote Shell (sbrsh) is used to provide CPU transparency for cross-compiling with Scratchbox. Instead of emulation, binaries are seamlessly run on the actual target hardware. This is useful for cases when QEMU user space emulation doesn't support some functionality properly. Scratchbox registers a helper to execute armel architecture binaries using the sbrsh command. Client sbrsh program connects to a remote machine running sbrshd server. After the server has authorized the connection, the client first requests it to mount a remote filesystem. When the filesystem has been mounted over network connection, the sbrshd server executes a binary given as argument to sbrsh client. Client sbrsh is typically run on host Linux machine where cross-compiling takes place. The server process sbrshd runs on target hardware.
