Hey,

you would either need an ARM build machine and do just the same like you
did on x86. However, building IPFire will take a while. Days instead of
hours.

If you don't have a powerful ARM machine (the Raspberry Pi is not an
option at all) you can emulate one on x86. This is even slower even on
powerful x86 machines, but it works.

I recommend Debian for that as it comes with a statically linked version
of qemu for ARM. Commands are much like when doing a native build, you
will just need to add the target architecture like this:

./make.sh clean
./make.sh --target=armv5tel gettoolchain
./make.sh --target=armv5tel downloadsrc
./make.sh --target=armv5tel build

Good luck!
