Toolchains

• Getting Android working on real hardware, you need an ARM EABI compatible development environment. I.e., your tool chain, your kernel and user space must be compatible to ARM EABI.
• If you don't like to create your own ARM EABI compatible compiler, linker, library etc. you should use CodeSourcery's ARM GNU/Linux tool chain.
  • Note: The naming in the CodeSourcery download section is slightly confusing.
  • You need the ARM GNU/Linux named tool chain which is indeed an ARM GNU/Linux EABI tool chain with glibc.
  • The ARM EABI named tool chain there is something normally known as arm-elf tool chain without any Linux support and without glibc.
