+<h3>Toolchains</h3>
+To use uClibc, you need to have a toolchain, which is composed
+of <a href="http://sources.redhat.com/binutils/">binutils</a>,
+<a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/">gcc</a>, and of course uClibc.
+
+<ul>
+
+ <li>You can build your own
+ <a href="/cgi-bin/cvsweb/toolchain/gcc-3.3.x/">uClibc toolchain</a>
+ using this to automagically download all the needed source code
+ and compile everything for you.
+ <p>
+
+ <li>Steven J. Hill has kindly provided
+ <a href="ftp://ftp.realitydiluted.com/linux/MIPS/toolchains">RPMs and SRPMs</a>
+ with toolchains for mips.
+ <p>
+
+ <li>You can compile your own uClibc development system using
+ <a href="/cgi-bin/cvsweb/buildroot/">buildroot</a>.
+ <p>
+
+ <li>Prebuilt uClibc development systems for
+ <a href="http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/uclibc/root_fs_i386.bz2">i386</a>
+ and
+ <a href="http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/uclibc/root_fs_arm.bz2">arm</a>
+ and
+ <a href="http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/uclibc/root_fs_mipsel.bz2">mipsel</a>
+ are available and contain complete native gcc 3.3.2 toolchains. These
+ are development systems are ext2 filesystems that runs natively on the
+ specified architecture. They contain all the development software you
+ need to build your own uClibc applications, including bash, coreutils,
+ findutils, diffutils, patch, sed, ed, flex, bison, file, gawk, tar,
+ grep gdb, strace, make, gcc, g++, autoconf, automake, ncurses, zlib,
+ openssl, openssh perl, and more. And of course, everything is
+ dynamically linked against uClibc. By using a uClibc only system, you
+ can avoid all the painful cross-configuration problems that have made
+ using uClibc somewhat painful in the past. If you want to quickly get
+ started with testing or using uClibc you should give these images a
+ try. You can loop mount them and then chroot into them. You can boot
+ into them using user-mode Linux. You can even 'dd' them to a spare
+ partition and use resize2fs to make them fill the drive, and then boot
+ into them. Whatever works for you.
