small developing chroot environment?

[Robertek]

Im looking for some small developing environment? does anyone have something like this, I now use basic gentoo in chrooted env,, it is pretty good, but sometimes too big (180MB gziped) Yes I know I can erase a lot of files, but it is not sometimes a good idea,, and I dont have time to do new stage1 specialized dev-kit.

So if someone know some small linux, or have small kit with all the needed dev things (GCC,binutils etc), I would be very thankful.

PS: Is it possible to compile roxbox for iriver H140 with GCC 4.1.1??

Why have it chrooted? It'll only make it a lot bigger than by simply installing the cross-compiler toolchain and use that.

run tools/rockboxdev.sh to set it up for you, m68k takes 52M on a 32bit linux

Its because I want my main system clean, I dont like have more toolchains if I dont have to.
Second that I just use that not in one computer, so I have only one package with chrooted env with roxbox files and when I want to play with that I just extract it and chroot.

Very easy and clean.
But gentoo distro has a lot of unneded packages for such a things.

But if you want to develop / compile rockbox then you do have to have extra toolchains. Your argument makes no sense.

I use gentoo, and I've no clue what you mean about "undeeded packages". I've got a lean distro with exactly what I want installed.

Couldn't you just build the environment to a folder in your home directory, and then add it to the path only when you're compiling?  Thats what I do and it works great.
