How To: Build a Custom Toolchain Using Crosstool-ng
This was originally posted at dodgejcr.com, however with the site going down and because of how useful I found it, I felt I should repost it as well as walk you through some of the problems I had creating my toolchain. Please note that this is setup around building a toolchain for the HTC Evo Shift which is on the ARMv7 processor.

Finals are over
Another successful semester has finished, and I’m finally off for summer break, well besides my final project due in a week. If my summer goes as planned I will be releasing a few minor programs that I have bouncing around in my head. However among those programs I plan on writing, I also plan on doing some arduino work as well, for example I am going to be making a theremin based off some information I saw online, which will be a neat experiment to see what kind of improvements can be made. I also plan on making some sort of early warning system for griefers on minecraft servers, however these are all in the planning stages, for now it’s time to relax and maybe have a drink. A toast to another successful semester, and to the class of 2012.

Updates will be posted as stuff happens, however the party is set to kick off in 15 minutes, I however was lucky enough to get in here right before the locked the main doors. Read more
