Sebastian pointed out that you can build all ARM BSPs in one pass. Or
specify a set of
BSPs with --enable-rtemsbsp="XXX YYY".
I don't think youneed to run bootstrap after your tree is cloned and
bootstrapped once.
It only needs to be run if you addfiles, delete files, or something else
that impacts the
configure.ac or Makefile.am files. But you can run bootstrap from any
directory with
a configure.ac and it will handle things recursively from there. If you
are working on a single
BSP, it saves a lot of time.
You also shouldn't need to build all the tests. I would recommend
--enable-tests=samples
and --disable-posix on your build. I believe you still want to have
networking enabled because
there are network drivers.
