RE: buildroot uClibc busybox and associated tool versions

We use the following version of uClibc , busybox , gcc , binutils
and kernel headers to build toolchain, rootfs, u-boot, rtai and linux =
kernel 2.4.25 for ppc5200:

gcc                     3.3.6
binutils                2.14.90.0.8
linux headers           2.4.29
gdb                     5.3
uClibc                  0.9.28
busybox                 1.0.0

If you want to use this toolchain to build linux kernel 2.6.x, you need =
other version of gcc, binutils and gdb.

Hope this helps.

Asunto: buildroot uClibc busybox and associated tool versions


Hi all

Im looking for some info on what versions of uClibc , busybox , gcc , =
binutils
and kernel headers are best to use to build up a toolchain and rootfs =
for a 82xx
PPC. =20

I am using buildroot http://buildroot.uClibc.org  to generate the =
toolchain
associated tools and rootfs but so far have not had much luck.

The host machine i am compiling on is a dell poweredge 650 xeon server =
running
Fedora Core 3,   it has  gcc 3.4.2-6  binutils-2.15.92.0.2  glibc-2.3.3 =
and
linux version 2.6.9-1.667. =20

Im trying to compile up a rootfs for 82xx PPC with the following
gcc 4.0.2
binutils 2.16.1
Kernel headers 2.16.12
uClibc   - whatever version works best, right now i have daily snapshot =
20060113
busybox - whatever version works best, right now  i have snapshot from =
9th march
and am applying patches released from 9th march - 13th march.

Personally i think the choices of gcc , binutils and Kernel headers are =
fine,  i
seem to be having more trouble with the uClibc ver and busybox ver.=20

Last Friday 10th march selecting the daily snapshot of uClibc caused the
compilation to not get past the point of generating gcc and bin utils. =
Using the
daily snapshot version of busybox also caused compilation to fail with =
it
reporting lots of .os and .osm files missing in the libbb dir until i =
applied
todays patches.

Ive also tried building with use daily snapshot unchecked for busybox =
and uClibc
but compilation fails.=20

Surely someone out there must know what versions of everything are the =
best to
use to generate a toolchain and rootfs for PPC.

Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated
