|

- <br>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- A number of additional problems have been fixed and the arm build
|
|
|
- is now, finally, compiling and working as expected. As such,
|
|
|
- I have updated the <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-i386.bz2">
|
|
|
- i386 development system image</a>, the
|
|
|
- <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-powerpc.bz2">
|
|
|
- powerpc development system image</a>, and I am also releasing
|
|
|
- upon an unsuspecting world the brand new
|
|
|
- <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-arm.bz2">
|
|
|
- arm development system image</a>!
|
|
|
- Have fun!
|
|
|
- <p>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- All three development system images were compiled and built using the stock
|
|
|
- <a href="/cgi-bin/cvsweb/buildroot/">buildroot</a> system. These were also
|
|
|
- built using the (about to be announced in a couple on minutes) uClibc
|
|
|
- 0.9.17 release, so if you want to begin compiling and testing stuff with
|
|
|
- uClibc, but you don't feel like spending the _hours_ it takes to download,
|
|
|
- configure, and build your own uClibc based development system -- then you
|
|
|
- may want to download these and give them a try. They each contain a 100 MB
|
|
|
- ext2 filesystem with everything you need to begin compiling your own
|
|
|
- applications. I have (at least minimally) tested each of them and verified
|
|
|
- that the included gcc and g++ compilers produce working uClibc linked
|
|
|
- executables.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- <p>
|
|
|
- Oh, and I have also have updated the uClibc/gcc toolchain builders, so
|
|
|
- if you just want a simple uClibc/gcc toolchain,
|
|
|
- <a href="/cgi-bin/cvsweb/toolchain/">one of these should work for you.</a>

|
- A few problems showed up in yesterday's development system release
|
|
|
- (adduser was broken, gdb didn't work, libstdc++ shared libs were missing,
|
|
|
- etc). So I've updated the <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-i386.bz2">
|
|
|
- i386 development system image</a> to fix these problems.
|
|
|
- Also, the <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-powerpc.bz2">
|
|
|
- powerpc development system image</a> has finally finished compiling
|
|
|
- and is now released upon an unsuspecting world. Have fun!

|
|
|
- CodePoet Consulting (i.e. Erik) has been working hard on <a
|
|
|
- href="/cgi-bin/cvsweb/buildroot/">buildroot</a> recently, and is pleased to
|
|
|
- offer a full stand-alone uClibc-only development system. This is an ext2
|
|
|
- filesystem for i386 containing all the development software you need to
|
|
|
- build your own uClibc applications. With bash, awk, make, gcc, g++,
|
|
|
- autoconf, automake, ncurses, zlib, openssl, openssh, gdb, strace, valgrind,
|
|
|
- busybox, GNU coreutils, and more, this should have pretty much everything
|
|
|
- you need to get started building your own applications linked against
|
|
|
- uClibc. By using a uClibc only system, you can avoid all the painful
|
|
|
- cross-configuration problems that have made using uClibc somewhat painful
|
|
|
- in the past. A powerpc and an arm version are in progress. Expect them
|
|
|
- to be released shortly....
|
|
|

|
-
|
|
|
- The <a href="http://www.uclibc.org/downloads/root_fs-i386.bz2">
|
|
|
- uClibc development system is an 18MB bzip2 compressed ext2 filesystem</a>,
|
|
|
- so be prepared to wait if you are on a slow link. If you wish to have more
|
|
|
- space, you can loop mount it and 'cp -a' the contents to their own
|
|
|
- partition, or do what I did... <EM>WARNING, the following can be very
|
|
|
- dangerous. Please be sure you know what you are doing before trying this.
|
|
|
- I am not responsible if you lose all your important data.</EM>I had a spare
|
|
|
- hard drive (in my case /dev/hdg but you'll want to adapt this to your own
|
|
|
- needs), so I partitioned it with a single ext2 partition filling the drive
|
|
|
- (in my case /dev/hdg1). Then I ran:<PRE>
|
|
|
- bzcat root_fs-i386.bz2 | dd of=/dev/hdg1
|
|
|
- e2fsck -f /dev/hdg1
|
|
|
- resize2fs -p /dev/hdg1</PRE>
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
- which overwrote everything on /dev/hdg with the new uClibc devel system,
|
|
|
- and then expanded the filesystem with the uClibc devel system till it
|
|
|
- filled the whole drive.
