Re: DENX ELDK Kernel

In message [ref] you wrote:

If I'd built the ELDK from scratch and used Linux-2.4.20 include files
to build "glibc (and all the rest of the target ELDK apps)" I should
build my "applications against the newer Linux kernel"! Shouldn't I?

Yes.

And in general: shouldn't I used a glibc that "matches" the kernel
version?

If you want to be absolutely safe, yes. But so far we have  not  seen
any  real  problems when - for example - running the 2.4.4 built libs
and tools on a 2.4.20+ kernel.

Best regards,
