I use Kali Linux, because everyone in my company use it. I think i can just install the required packages afterwards, so this should not be a problem. Which OS would you recommend?

Re #31.

Kali Linux is Debian / Ubuntu based, so Ubuntu 14.04 will do.
.. And you will have all the ~42,000 packages in the repo.


About "install the required packages afterwards" :
Your missing package is 'g++-arm-linux-gnueabi'.
What's the specs for your gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi ?
Please show the reply from $ dpkg -s gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi

I just downloaded and installed Ubuntu 14.04 and i will try it there, if this doesn't work either, then i try to create my own toolchain, instead of using the one which i mentioned in post #8, because i start to think that it is the fault of the toolchain, gcc 4.4.3 is maybe too outdated?
Quote:
I use this one: arm-linux-gcc-4.4.3 which can be found on the following site:
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/9cs...#8wdvqqe9hfjxz
But i tell you the output $ dpkg -s gcc-arm-linux-gnueab anyways:

Output (german):
Code:
dpkg-query: Paket gcc-arm-linux-gnueab ist nicht installiert und es ist keine Information verfgbar
Verwenden Sie dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) zum Untersuchen von Archiven
und dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) zum Auflisten ihres Inhalts.
Means: package is not installed and there is no information available

It's a small company in germany, we sell our own network devices. But i better don't tell you the name of the company tho, because i wan't to stay "anonymous".

I tried to create my own toolchain with crosstool-ng. I downloaded crosstools, extracted it and executed "sh demo-arm.sh".
It downloaded alot of packages, it often get error messages because some packages are not existing on the sources anymore. So i had to search them manually and place them on "/home/downloads" so they could be found.

But now i get this error:

Code:
configure: error:
*** These critical programs are missing or too old: gcc
*** Check the INSTALL file for required versions.
The output of $ gcc --version | head -1 is: gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04) 4.8.4

Re #35.

"crosstool-ng-1.21.0.tar.xz" :
I found no script by name 'demo-arm.sh' in `crosstool-ng-1.21.0/'.
