Yeah, I'm working on updated instructions at the moment. You may get stuck at the step that's "Install a new kernel on the RPi." if your system is i386; Those instructions only work on x86_64, afaik.

I'm keeping a log of what I try to see if I can make things faster / better.

Yep, got stuck on that step :P

Decided to go with an Arch Vagrant box (Specifically Arch Linux x86_64 (2013-08) from http://www.vagrantbox.es/). Running into issues with make in Step 5:

drivers/thermal/bcm2835-thermal.c:21:23: fatal error: mach/vcio.h: No such file or directory

Has anyone here run into this issue?

For the love of everything fluffy, don't run that command if you don't know what you're doing!

If you don't know what dd does, never run it. You really should know what all commands do, but dd can hose your system very easily.

I've just tried to install crosstool-ng on Mac OS X 10.6.8 (i386), and building it just never works.
