Hello,
 
In order to build the ARM crosscompiler I am supposed to use the command
 
 make -f contrib/linaro/build.mk TARGETS=... HOST=linux
 
However, I cannot find the file build.ml 
You can see in the attached image that it is not in the linaro folder.
 
Any ideas what is going wrong?
 
Thank you
Haris Papadopoulos

Do you use Linaro scripts?

wget http://releases.linaro.org/14.04/components/toolchain/binaries/crosstool-ng-linaro-1.13.1-4.8-2014.04.tar.bz2
