Gentoo On iPaq
The idea
Use only as little space as necessary. This includes no portage nor gcc install on target system (ipaq). The idea is to fully cross-compile the system for ipaq on a i686 host into a subdir (using the ${ROOT} portage feature) and create a jffs2 image which will be uploaded to the ipaq (later updates will be done over nfs-mounted root).

UPDATE: Now that the handhelds.org 2.6 kernel can boot right from SD, we don't need to bother with creating the jffs2 image.
The steps
It's best if you write this to a script...
First, we need the tools for cross-compiling...
emerge crossdev crossdev --target arm-unknown-linux-gnu
If the above fails, try with safer versions...
crossdev -t arm-unknown-linux-gnu --g 3.4.6 --l 2.3.6-r3
If this fails complaining kernel headers are too old, do the following quick hack (see this forum for more info...
ln -s /usr/arm-unknown-linux-gnu/usr/include/ /usr/arm-unknown-linux-gnu/include mkdir /usr/arm-unknown-linux-gnu/usr/arm-unknown-linux-gnu ln -s /usr/arm-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/ /usr/arm-unknown-linux-gnu/usr/arm-unknown-linux-gnu/lib
Now you should have the complete cross-compiler (with C++) support ready. If not, don't bother to continue...
Prepare the destination directory...
mkdir /tmp/ipaq
Now, we can start building the target system...
export ARCH="arm"
export ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="-* arm"
export CHOST="arm-unknown-linux-gnu"
export CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
export CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"
export CXXFLAGS=${CFLAGS}
export ROOT="/tmp/ipaq"
export USE="-*"

export CONFIG_PROTECT="-* ${ROOT}/etc"
