If you just want to try something quickly and no intention to play with real boards, then you can start with example projects under path share/gcc-arm-none-eabi/samples on QEMU.

If you intend to play with real boards, you need to prepare the board related things like startup files and linker scripts other than your main code. I suggest you to start with MBED. Please visit website mbed.org, find yourself a MBED-enabled board then play with your board via MBED online IDE. Then you can export your online project into local project in format that is supported by this tool chain.

You can also start with CoIDE.

Hi, thanks for the reply.
I am going to start with STM32F4Discovery board with gnu tools for ARM.
If this is the case, Keil or similar (e.g., IAR) provides project setup for each processor (probably this is the selection of startup code and memory sectioning).
However, I couldn't find good hands on tutorial that explains how do I start basic LED blinking example with gcc-arm-none-eabi.
For example, linking of StdPeriph, CMSIS, startup code and Makefile.
I believe someone wrote tutorial on blog or somewhere, but I don't know where it is.
If anyone know that, please let me know. It would be appreciated.

well.
I think the example provide by the toolchain itself is too hard for us newbie to gcc ,so final I try another way,i just search a simple tutorial for a specific board.
i had a stm32f3discovery,not like you,and i find a good and simple enough tutorial in github.
maybe you can try it?

well.
I think i had another suggest.
just try to search a single demo using gnu toolchain for your target board.
I had tried hard with the example provide by GNU toolchain build itself.
so I just want to have a try:is there a simple single alone demo?
and my board is stm32f3discover,and is so luckly i found it on github.
maybe you can have a try?
