Before beginning, a *distcc* environment needs to be set up. Follow the [[Distributed Compiling]] guide to establish a master system. The x86 machines will be known as the clients.

In lieu of building the toolchain as detailed below, if you are running a *64-bit* Linux installation you can use these packaged toolchains that are employed in the official build system.
It is **highly recommended** to use these tarballs as they have been thoroughly tested, and are maintained to be version- and source-matched to the current toolchain components for our ARM architectures. If you build the toolchain yourself, you must assemble patched source tarballs to build versions that match what is in use here.

## Building a crosstool-ng toolchain
This process is very automated, courtesy of [crosstool-ng](http://crosstool-ng.org). As a normal user (**not root!**), clone revision *ec384f2b* of the git repository into a directory called `cross` in your home directory. Enter the source directory and configure with a prefix for the `cross` directory, make, and make install. If you are missing any pre-requisites, the configure script will let you know what they are.

### Downloading a CrossTool Configuration
Download the default .config file to place in `~/cross/bin` as shown below. **Once you do this, do not run "menuconfig" or values will be overwritten**. Choose either v5, v6, v7, or v8 depending on the target platform.
