using GNU to compile for PPC405?

EDK ships with GNU tools.

I know this. For reasons I dont want to get into I cant use EDK. so i wanted to compile with a mostly standard gnu tool chain install.

Thanks

I recently used Dan Kegel's crosstool to build a power PC toolchain, then used that tool chain to build a PPC linux kernel targeted for a V2Pro device. Alas I don't have a dev board to test it (ml300 reference platform), but the initial signs were good.

The ppc compiler distributed with edk is gcc-powerpc-eabi - it should be easy to use crosstool to build this toolchain. I don't have enough experience with the V2Pro PPC core to say if there are any special tricks in the EDK version.
