Hi,

I have a Pi running headless (and without Desktop IDE) and want to Install the cross compile version of QT on it. The thing is that I dont want to remove the SD Card on it, is it possible to install the toolchain and all the stuff without editing the image in the host machine?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can try with fuse + sshfs to mount the root fs remotely.

Hope it helps

Okay, thanks!

While cloning the script, it looks like gitorious is not available at the moment, is there a workaround?

Cloning into 'cross-compile-tools'...
fatal: unable to connect to gitorious.org:
gitorious.org[0: 109.107.38.78]: errno=Connection timed out
gitorious.org[1: 2a02:c0:1014::1]: errno=Network is unreachable

Currently Im following this tutorial which uses the sshfs as you already mentioned.

gitorious as been acquired by gitlab and is currently migrating its repositories to the internet archive for read-only use. You either have to be patient or find an alternative mirror
