Basic question about toolchain

1

Hi all,

I just bought a Arrow Cyclone V FPGASoC kit, and tried the linux boot. I found that none of the Altera and RocketBoard version linux image has toolchain, such as GCC for ARM. Does that mean I need to first make the tool chain on my PC, and then download to the board? As
http://www.alterawiki.com/wiki/Compiling_u-boot_and_Linux_Kernel_for_Cyclone_V_SoC
has explained, I need to first make GCC for baremetal and ARM-linux?

Sorry for the stupid question…

Thanks~~

Hi momoxinduop,
Maybe the Linaro toolchain can help you: https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/ToolChain
With this toolchain you can cross compile the kernel or other applications for the Cyclone V…

Cheers
