I'm working on a contract that involves building as little as possible
to support running elementary.  I'll later expand it to E when I'm done
with that part of the contract, then I might dump the results into
E's SVN.  Or you could look at the existing OpenEmbedded stuff in SVN.
The difference is that OE gives you an entire distro, my stuff gives
me just what is needed, and no more.  Depends on your needs, but I
need absolutely minimal (government requirements).

Anyway, I build on my development box just barely enough of a linux
system to run a compiler, then shove that into qemu emulating the final
embedded hardware, and build the rest from in there.  When it is all
built, I flash it onto real hardware.  Works fine.

What I have could build ON your hardware, it's more than my target
hardware (i486, 256MB RAM, 256MB flash storage).  One other requirement
of this contract is that a government audit lab should be able to
compile it all.  I plan to give them the finished device, and a hard
drive full of source code and development tools.  Telling them to plug
hard drive into device, run the build script, come back hours later to
inspect the result.

My stuff is not ready yet, but you could have a look at SVN 
trunk/TMP/oe, to see if that meets your needs.
