Hello, Hopefully I have picked a suitable list for this question, I realise this isn't strictly a development question - but I couldn't find a better place to ask.
I have an embedded appliance running linux that I am trying to build a tool chain for. The manufacturer supplies no tool chain, they don't even follow the GPL. I know that the appliance is based on the following software: linux-2.6.22.19 gcc-3.4.2 uClibc-0.9.27 I have a reasonable experience with linux and embedded systems, but I have never built a cross compiler before. I understand the easiest option is to use the buildroot system that will download the sources and compile a toolchain. In my instance I don't think this is possible because I am tied to using the specific versions above and they are not selectable options in the current buildroot system. I have done a lot of searching in google and found quite a few sites that describe some of the process at varying points in time, and of varying quality. But I have not found something definitive that I have been confident is the correct/optimal procedure. Could anyone point me to a suitable guide on the steps I should follow to compile the tool chain? My end goal is to compile a small httpd server that I can run on the existing firmware in the appliance. Many thanks, Ian. _______________________________________________ uClibc mailing list [email protected] http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/uclibc
