[NTLUG:Discuss] cross-compile to vxworks (m68k) from linux

[Seth Daniel]

All,

A quite a bit different question from all the talk about 
Linux Demo Day.  

Basically I have a device which runs vxworks.  It contains
a Motorola 68xxx chip.  I'd like to do some programming for
this in my spare time, but I don't have the cash to pay
Wind River (http://www.windriver.com) for the full development 
environment.  Even if I could I don't believe it would run under
Linux.

Is there *any* way to compile binaries (from C code) to 
run on this target?  I know that you can cross compile
to an m68k target, but I have a feeling there is more
to it than this.  Any pointers to information, or any
leads at all would be much appreciated.  I'm very knew
to cross-compiling, etc..., but I'm not new to C.  

I suppose I could write everything in assembly, but I 
*really* don't want to do that.

If I'm SOL on this then so be it.  Surely someone knows
whether this is even possible or not.
