Algorithmics sde4 is not matured enough to compile 2.4.xx kernels (As Dominic Sweetman mentioned in his reply to my help mail). He said sde5 will do but I dint get a chance to try this. Any update from anyone used it? 2. I followed BradLaRondes write up - Building a Modern Mips Tool chain (I dont have the link irght now, but you can google it). It compiles the kernel and Applications. But it requires kernel header lying around from previous builds. So if you are just starting, then you may wanna grab the header from somewhere. But the problem with this toolchain is: I was not able to build Yamon SREC using this. 3. I also tried Steve Hills toolchain located at ftp://ftp.cotw.com/Linux/MIPS/toolchain/experimental It is complete and I can build kernel and applications with it. Again I couldnt build Yamon SREC with it. BTW you may need to do slight changes, like changing target from little-mips to tradlittle-mips etc. Its simple but if you get stuck, post it here and someone will help you.
