We're using a custom RM9200 board (parallel flash) also with buildroot, 
and i would like to specify some of the "limitations" Ulf mentioned if 
on parallel flash:

- Kernel won't work created by buildroot. We've moved to build one using 
the buildroot toolchain, sources are vanilla + the victor patches + some 
small fixes concerning the PHY
- U-Boot is the same, but for you are on a custom board, you'll always 
have to "tune" the bootloader, i think.
- I would suggest to stick with the OABI. We've given EABI more than 
just a try and kept running into a whole lotta trouble.
- Most "standard apps" will work: bash, busybox, gcc - for evereything 
else, we compile in-target here.

Hope that  helps a little, Joe
