offmyserver.com donated a server to NetBSD. I am hosting it.I have been doing cross-builds of NetBSD-current with Linux as host operating system. Found a few problems, such as lex and cpp (for C++) not being propogated into the "tools" build. But they are fixed now.
The command I am using to cross-compile NetBSD/hp700 for the "hppa" type architecture using Linux on i386 architecture is:
HOST_CXX=/usr/gcc3/bin/c++ HOST_CC=/usr/gcc3/bin/cc ./build.sh -D ~/netbsd/hp700/build -O ~/netbsd/hp700/obj -T ~/netbsd/hp700/tools -m hp700 -U tools build kernel=GENERIC
Pretty amazing! I will need to test that on a HP workstation soon.
