I just want to add two things to Paul's very good description.

First, have you checked our build instructions and how tos on our github [1] ?

And second, which Raspberry Pi model are you targeting? Newer (> gcc 4.7)
cross-toolchains seem to have dropped support for ARMv6k. While you still can
compile L4Re/Fiasco for that architecture the binaries will not run later.

Best,
Matthias.
