kernel 2.6.20 compiler



Hi Everybody,
 
Iam a newbie in this field.
 
I would like to build a kernel for my customised target platform based on IXP425 processor. The schmatics r very similar to the ixdpg425 development board given by Intel.
 
For this I have downloaded kernel from kernel.org. How do i know which even number kernel is the best one to download? Currently i downloaded kernel 2.6.20
 
Do i need any additinal patches?
 
Which is the cross compiler toolchain that can compile this kernel for my IXP platform for BE mode? I currently have arm-linux-tools-20061213 toolchain. Will this work?
 i tried but i get an error as below:
 
/bin/sh: line 1: /usr/local/arm/usr/local/bingcc: is a directory
make[1]: *** [arch/arm/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 126
make: *** [prepare0] Error 2
 
Can someone guide me through please.
 
Thanx

Queenie
