<span style="color: #000000;">In order to build the Linux Kernel for IGEP PROCESSOR BOARDS it is recommended to cross-compile the kernel, that means to build the kernel in your HOST machine for a target architecture.</span>
To [index[Ubuntu 16.php/04 LTS Toolchain|Ubuntu_16.04_LTS_Toolchain setup the cross-compiling04]] there are two fundamental variables that the kernel uses to select the target architecture. Normally these values are guessed based on your build environment, but of course that environment here does not match our target embedded system, so we'll need to override them. The variables in question are:
* <u>''' ARCH'''</u>''':''' The ARCH variable is the architecture you're targeting as the kernel knows it. For IGEP PROCESSOR BOARDS you'll set to "arm" architecture.
