PPC cross-compiling 1394 libraries

I need to compile some 1394 libraries for my embedded 8260 board running HHL 2.0. These
are the libraw1394 libraries needed for Firewire. They have a ./configure script
and everything, but if I tell the script --target=powerpc-linux I get 100's of
make errors. I'm using the HHL2.0 cross compiler, maybe that needs something
extra to be done?

Any advice on cross compiling libraries would be very appreciated?

I sent this before, but i bounced back, so I'm not sure if it made it to the list or not. If so, I'm sorry for the double post.

Whenever I have cross compiled something I have always just edited the makefiles by hand. If you are using a std Linux box then all the data types should be ok and configure will pick things up just fine.

I don't remember but I think I compiled libraw at some point. What are the errors you are getting? Now that I think about it you may want to make sure you have it pointing to the kernel source you will be using on the walnut. This is one area you must make sure things are the same.
