I used co-linux some time ago and I think it's great. The problem is
that I have to use Rational Rose Realtime to create the code I want to
compile and that seems to require a native Windows cross-compiler. It is
not that easy to "export" the code from Rose Realtime because it does
not offer that and the makefiles of the generated code are very complex
and closely related to Rose Realtime itself.

Currently I am trying to do two things at one but I don't have any
progress with both. One thing I try is to compile the generated code
with an own makefile so that I could compile it on Linux. The other
thing is that I compiled the MicroBlaze toolchain from
http://www.petalogix.com/resources/downloads/mb-gcc on Linux and now I
want to compile the buildtools and the gcc itself on mingw/Windows using
the libraries compiled on Linux. Unfortunately I cannot even compile the
buildtools :(

Maybe you could give me some hints or another idea?

That sounds interesting. When you have some first results I would like
to know.

Thank you and best regards
