Anyone know where I can find cross-compilers for the Z? I know that I need:
gcc-cross-sa1100-2.95.2-0.i386.rpm (gcc compiler for ARM architecture)
binutils-cross-arm-2.11.2-0.i386.rpm (binary utilities for ARM architecture)
glibc-arm-2.2.2-0.i386.rpm (GNU C libraries for ARM architecture)
linux-headers-arm-sa1100-2.4.6-3.i386.rpm (linux header files for ARM architecture)
Every link here at OE, or at ZaurusUserGroup, or Google(!) that I've followed leads to a 404. Since I want to get OpenSwan running on the Z I need to rebuild it, and (probably) a 2.6 kernel.
Help!

If you want to use the 2.6 kernel you're probably best off helping out with OE and using that on your Z.
Go to http://openembedded.org (http://openembedded.org) and read the Getting Started page (also looik at the Openembedded part of this forum). OpenEmbedded/BitBake downloads and creates/compiles its own cross-toolchain for you.

That's the compiler setup howto hosted here at oesf.org. The downloads there work. I have copies of the Redhat compatibility RPMs listed there, and they work fine on my Mandrake 10 boxes. If there's any sort of demand for them I'll ask offroadgeek if he wants to host them, as I don't have enough space.
2.6 is going to be pretty much a non-starter for the Sharp compatible roms.

That links to a discussion on keyboards... But I did find the cross compilers in the howto you mentioned. So thank you!
Why putting "cross-compiler" and "cross compiler" in the search box doesn't lead there I don't know.
On closer look, it doesn't seem that I need the 2.6 kernel to get IPSEC running, just something called KLIPS (Kernel Level IPSec, I think). I wonder how hard that'll be. Not being an actual kernel hacker, I think I'll leave the porting to people who know what they're doing.
