Buildroot for pine-apple ( cross-compile)

[stutte]

Hey is there some body who has a working build root for the mark5 ??

i am trying to have a working cross compiler for pineapple

or is there someone who could help me find the right settings (cpu arch,kernel,uclibc,binutils,gcc version ??? )

this is a example i use for compiling for my arm router ... so i would need most of these settings

# This tutorial describes how to a build an ARM #

# #
# Device = ARM embedded device (router) #
# Host OS = Ubuntu 14.10 #

# Get the latest version of buildroot
cd ~
git clone git://git.buildroot.net/buildroot

# Setup buildroot
cd buildroot
make menuconfig

Target options:
-> Set 'Target Architecture' to ARM (big endian)
-> Set 'Target Architecture Variant' to arm1176jz-s
-> Set 'Target ABI' to EABI
-> Set 'Floating point strategy' to Soft float

Build options:
-> Enable compiler cache

Toolchain:
-> Set 'Kernel Headers' to manually specified
-> Set 'Linux version' to 2.6.39.3
-> Set 'Custom kernel headers series' to 2.6.x

-> Set 'C library' to 'uClibc'
-> Set 'uClibc version' to 0.9.33.x

-> Enable IPv6 support
-> Enable RPC support
-> Enable WCHAR support

-> Set 'Binutils Version' to 2.22
-> Set 'GCC Version' to 4.7.x

Save and exit.

# Start building toolchain
make

# When finished, toolchain can be found in ~/buildroot/output/host/usr/bin/
# GCC syntax: ./armeb-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc <source.c> -o <output file>

Ok i found the right settings to compile with buildroot i updated the first post

so people can use this as a tutorial

[stutte]

can not edit my previous post

i figured it out and

and have a working cross compiler for pineapple

these are the right settings (cpu arch,kernel,uclibc,binutils,gcc version ??? )

this is a example i use for compiling for my mark 5

# Get the latest version of buildroot
cd ~
git clone git://git.buildroot.net/buildroot

# Setup buildroot
cd buildroot
make menuconfig

Target options:
-> Set 'Target Architecture' to MIPS (big endian)
-> Set 'Target Architecture Variant' to mips32
-> Set 'Floating point strategy' to use Soft float

Build options:
-> Enable compiler cache

choose if you want static or dynamic binary's compiled

static is easy cus it does not require libraries on the pineapple butt sometimes dynamic compiling is needed

Toolchain:
-> Set 'Kernel Headers' to manually specified
-> Set 'Linux version' to 3.3.8
-> Set 'Custom kernel headers series' to 3.3.x
-> Set 'C library' to 'uClibc'
-> Set 'uClibc version' to 0.9.33.x

-> Enable IPv6 support
-> Enable RPC support
-> Enable WCHAR support

-> Set 'Binutils Version' to 2.22
-> Set 'GCC Version' to 4.7.x

Save and exit.
