If you've built a toolchain with crosstool, ensure the generated tools
are in your PATH and then simply run them as you would normally:
arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-gcc -o test test.c
etc.
Your machine name may differ depending on what you built with crosstool
but arm-softfloat-linux-gnu is what I'm using for balloon2.
The above will let you build executables that will run under Linux,
though you'll need to make sure the shared libraries being used by
crosstool match those on the balloon (or I suppose you could
add -static).
The crosstool toolchain is also sufficient for compiling a replacement
kernel (export ARCH="arm" CROSS_COMPILE="arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-").
Bye for now,
