Hi everyone,
I'd just like to post a link on the Gentoo-Wiki for Portage users,
providing an easy way to make the cross-toolchain targetting the ep93xx
cpu's by default (for the TS72xx boards actually):
http://gentoo-wiki.com/Gentoo_for_the_TS72xx_Single_Board_Computer_(Full_Distro)
--with-cpu=arm920t
--with-tune=arm920t
--with-fpu=maverick
--with-float-abi=softfp
glibc-2.5-r4
gcc-4.1.2
linux-headers-2.6.23-r3
binutils-2.17-r1
gdb-6.7.1-r2
Along with the toolchain, there are also instructions for building the
kernel and a from-scratch rootfs (linux-2.6.23.1).
The rootfs instructions are somewhat lengthy. I haven't stripped the
filesystem of headers, static libs, man pages, etc, as of yet, and it
has a native toolchain as well, but I would expect that the filesystem
would be ~ 150 MB when the clutter is removed.
This is a 'full' glibc userland without any nice, space-saving features
that uClibc / BusyBox provide. That will be the next article ;-)
After I have stabilized the procedure and also done a bit more work for
a project my company is working on, I will make binary packages available.
All patchsets were collected from many various places, including this
list and the ts7000 list. Thanks for you hard work!
Cheers,
Chris
