About four years ago, I successfully built C programs for my 7250 using gcc and 
Debian on the TS flash drive developer's kit. Unfortunately, the USB flash 
drive is nowhere to be found after moving to our new house.

I'm reading the TS manuals, trying to figure out how to fdisk a new flash drive 
and install Debian on it, to replicate the lost developer's kit.

In the Getting Started document, I stumbled across mention of cygwin, which 
appears to be a cross-assembler I can run on Windows, then transfer the 
executable code to the 7520. Am I correct so far?

The document says, "For cross platform development, the use of Dan Kegels' 
crosstools is recommended (<http://kegel.com/crosstool/>). The pre-compiled tar 
files for Cygwin (Windows) or Linux is available on the developers CD as well 
as on our web-site (www.embeddedARM.com)."

Unfortunately, the kegel.com/crosstool/ link doesn't work, and I don't see 
anything about cygwin on kegel.com. I searched embeddedARM.com for cygwin, but, 
although a lot of hits come up, I don't see any place to download it.

Is cygwin a free download? Where can I find it?

Thanks very much.
