A project to create embedded versions of Gentoo Linux has achieved preliminary releases on x86, MIPS, PPC, and ARM. The releases include native core system binaries, cross-platform toolchains, and, for x86, an optional hardened toolchain. The year-old project needs developers to help add cross-compile awareness to source packages.

Agree with jared. Are people working with embedded linux even using distros as we server/desktop guys do? Always imagined them building a small system from source, cross complied it and loaded it to the device. "The year-old project needs developers to help add cross-compile awareness to source packages." If they havn't fixed cross compiling yet then what have they achieved?
