It could work, but I don't think mixed soft/hard float systems are supported very well (probably not many people are crazy enough to want this). You would need to use an alternate (and non standard) dynamic linker path, and some patches will be needed so ld/ld.so chooses the right library. > BTW information about mips box are outdated here > https://wiki.debian.org/MIPSPort Thanks. I can add some of the newer buildds, but I don't know exactly which ones have been retired. > It worked under ball but it seems ball was retired... I think ball did have an FPU. Thanks, James
