If I understood correctly, this is some TV-related hardware, running Linux.

Have similar experience with my satellite receiver, having PPC processor
also equipped with HDD, ethernet, so on.

Earlier I tried do some cross-compilation, and succeeded some, but then I
discovered it is able to run just RedHat binaries for PPC (and probably some
other) so now I am happy with Perl, GCC, and other cool stuff inside my
receiver, and now it just able to build Perl by itself.
