Sean,

Thanks for your reply.  I'm doing my development on Linux as
a matter of fact and won't mind creating a cross compiler there
as well.

True... I know what the --target is used for but need to know
the correct settings (such as 'r3000-elf' or 'rxxxx-ecoff').
Does anyone have such information?

Thanks and Merry Christmas,
Patrick
