Could anyone give me a detailed manual how I can perform cross compilation for ARMV5T arch on X86_SuSE? Thanks a lot.

hi all,


I've tried to perform the cross compilation for ARMV5 over OE today, following the instructions mentioned in http://icedtea.classpath.org/wiki/CrossCompileOECoreTutorial. 
The compilation stopped with the following error while executing "bitbake openjdk-6"


Parsing recipes: 100% |######################################################################################| Time: 00:01:30
Parsing of 1235 .bb files complete (0 cached, 1235 parsed). 1600 targets, 36 skipped, 0 masked, 0 errors.
ERROR: No recipes available for:
  /root/oe-core/meta-openembedded/meta-oe/recipes-extended/lighttpd/lighttpd_1.4.30.bbappend
ERROR: Command execution failed: Exited with 1


What should I do now?


I established my build system based on VM on VirtualBox 4.1.18. The host environment is I7 Q720, with Windows7 as the OS. The guest OS is ubuntu-12.04-server-i386.

Best regards,
