You can do that too. But the real fun is being able to write code for lots of customised hardware. Without the pain of creating toolchains. Many arm gadgets have displays, keyboards etc (cellphones, pdas and some "instanton" notebooks). But the vast majority have none of these and are used in machine control, robotics etc.
I think I understand. If you don't mind letting me know, do you intend installing the Armel distribution in a virtual machine to build software, or do you have hardware on which you can install it? How do you get over the need to cross compile by using the armel architecture distribution?
Thanks.
