Disregard my feeble wanderings.. I was thinking about my attempt to move busybox to 1.10.1 and the problems I was seeing there.
I think though the two are related. Seems that uClibc 0.9.29 no
longer
supports the toolchain wrappers for -nostdlib and forcing a linking
with
native tools (gcc/binutils) and a compiled uClibc library. This was pulled in 0.9.22 according to the uclibc FAQ. Maybe it was just a
one
off that FC5 still worked.
Strange. It worked for 0.9.28 as well. Those are the two versions
I've
used in buildrom.
Ward: You've used lab haven't you? What toolchain do you use?
Yep, I've got LAB systems running. I build on gNewsense deltad
typically,
which is basically Ubuntu Dapper, 32 bit.
It might be time for us to ping the uClibc / busybox teams for some guidance.
So you think it's a broken uClibc / busybox problem, not a compiler/binutils problem?
I'm inclined to think that it's a toolchain issue since I can't build v2 on my 32-bit system. I don't know how to tell the difference, though.
Having the serial port continue working through the kernel on SimNow would help, though.
D'oh - its not working through the kernel? Even with console=ttyS0,115200 ?
That sounds ominous.
