[ixp1200] Compiling armtoolchain

[M. Rasit Eskicioglu]

Hi David,

Moh'd is my student, so I can reply in behalf of him. Actually, unless
3 disk RH9 distribution is missing some package, your suggestion is
not valid, as we installed *everything* on the host system, i.e., all
packages on all 3 discs.

As for the command *before* the failure, the whole package is build by
a single make, so we don't know unless we dissect the makefile.

You comments are still appreciated.

Thanks,

Rasit
