That's because OE was based on portage 3 years ago, but we moved on since portage was too limited.

Really? wow, I thought of portage as a great tool!  
what was it that made it limited? if I may ask, pleaseeee

Just hit a problem with linux-headers and distcc : the object files were compiled for an x86... I'll have to check how to workaround this (probably by patching an ebuild or eclass). Works without distcc though.

Did you follow the corss-compile [a href=\"http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/embedded/cross-development.xml]howto[/url]? and emerged sys-devel/crossdev et al?

I found this on the Gentoo forums (look at the post by Kumba), it is for cross-distcc on an intel for sparc but it could be used for a starting point, also it mentions what he did with the kernel headers, perhaps something similar could be done there...

I'm currently trying to install Gentoo on my Zaurus C3K. The main reason for that if that I want to benefit from the huge Portage software repository.

Great, I have a 6K and I wanted to install gentoo... it would be a great learning experience if I don't brick the Z.
I would like to participate with this project, and mabe we could join efforts with the gentoo-embedded.

As soon as you post a HOWTO I will be trying it!  


Regards!
