I'm not sure if you can do it with GCC.

Chapter I: "Looking for the SDK" - 1-6 pages
Chapter II: "First steps" - 7-17 pages
Read chapters I & II only if you're really interested in how we got those awesome tools and figure out how to use them.
Chapter III: "We're developers" 18-48 pages
Yes, it's long, but contains a lot of useful information.
I think it will not take more than 20 minutes to run through it.

First of all, read the "Introduction of developing game for Rockchips 260X series" (it's inside the Rockchip SDK archive)
Write the source code using a C compilator, like Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 (use torrents)
Then install the FWTools v2.6.10 (ReadMe.txt) and generate some output files.
Install the Rockchip GDK, choose the settings and select your generated files from the previous step,
and hit the "Link" button to create the .rkp file.

Read the Chapter III.
If you have more questions or need a more detailed explanation, I'd be glad to help.
Good luck.
