I finally got this to work after following your suggestion. I
successfully built the 0.31 crosstools under Debian and compiled and
ran helloworld on the TS-7250. In the process, I messed something
up with Debian by uninstalling support for modules, but I'll figure
that out later. Is there any good test other program than a simple
helloworld to check the compiler with for the TS-7250?
Thanks for all the help,
