Please read the help post: Can I Create an Executable on One Operating System and Run it on Another?

PyInstaller is tested against Windows, MacOS X, and Linux. However, it is not a cross-compiler; to make a Windows app you run PyInstaller on Windows, and to make a Linux app you run it on Linux, etc.
