    Have you tried simply crosscompiling?

    Usually it's enough to just recompile from source for the new architecture.

    I didn&#39;t do it.

    Becaue NIOS2 uCLINUX use NIOS2 5.0 IDE.

    Should I compile NET-SNMP souce code directly use NIOSW 5.0 IDE?

    Thanks a lot.

    I&#39;m not sure how hard it is to do under cygwin...

    I *think* you should be able to run under linux:# ./configure --target=nios2-linux

    OR# ./configure --host=nios2-linux

    OR under cygwin I think it is:# ./configure --target=nios2-elf

    OR# ./configure --host=nios2-elf

    You probably have to add nios2 information to the config.sub file in the section which begins with:

    case $basic_machine in

    then you can make and make install as normal.

    But I never had much succes using cygwin, so if you have the chance get a linux machine with marc&#39;s crosscompiler (http://scorpius.homelinux.org/~marc/nios2.html)!!
