Re: Cross Compiler for Python

You can probably just run configure on your normal machine and then
edit the makefile to add -m32 to the compiler or linker flags--that
will force gcc to generate 32-bit code. You'd have to copy the files
over and get the paths right yourself though. Alternately, if you can
mount the eBox somewhere in Linux, you should be able to do configure
--prefix=/path/to/eBox/mount and then make install will work for you
too.

(I haven't tried this before, but that's how I'd go about it.)
Thanks Dan - the VM is not really an option for me - my Suse XEN stuff does
not actually work - I have never managed to figure out why not...

The other idea - mounting the ebox is a good one - I will try it and report back

- At the worst, I can manage to destroy my current installation.... *grin*
