Okay, so bunzip your toolchain tarball in some directory. In my case, it
ended up creating this path:
/home/ts7200/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/
(I was in /home/ts7200 when I bunzipped the toolchain tarball). Inside
that directory is a bin/ directory which contains your toolchain. If you
want to compile hello.c for your TS-board all you need to do is
/home/ts7200/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc
hello.c -o hello
Typically, you would add this bin/ directory to your path so you can
omit a chunk of this string:
PATH="/home/ts7200/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin:$PATH"
Put that line in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile (if you are using
bash as your shell), or wherever your shell configuration sources its
environment variables. Resource this file after you change it until you
re-log in (or log out and log back in again). Check it with:
env | grep PATH
Now you've reduced your command to
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc hello.c -o hello
If you do a lot of command line compiling you will want to define an alias:
alias ccarm="arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc"
But typically, you work with Makefiles within which you either define
CC=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc
or
CROSS_COMPILE ?=
/home/ts7200/2.6/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
and it will append the tool it wants to this string. Note that the PATH
changes aren't necessary for this method.
Of course, you want to substitute the name of your toolchain for
"arm-none-linux-gnueabi"
Try that.
