You can find detailed step-by-step instructions for the Arduino build 
at: http://projects.cs.kent.ac.uk/projects/kroc/trac/wiki/CrossBuilding

Make sure the autoconf package you are using is not version 2.64 as it 
is broken!

You don't need a VM at all, it will work quite happily on a native 
install :)


HTH,
Omer.
