Hi,

after playing around a bit with the Astlinux VM I got over confident  and
tried to compile Astlinux for a MIPS SBC we are using for a students' project.
I got the new development environment via svn and tried to compile (first for
i586, just to get something going). But actually I failed to get the hang of
it. Is the new environment supposed to be used stand alone or as an extension
to the old one? Especially as it does not seem to build a kernel (it tries to
build busybox 2.6.13???) as such in .../linux.

How is the new system related to the old one? How do I get a bootable system?
Run the kernel in the old environment or pick an existing one, adding the new
files along? Thanks for any help!

I also include a few tidbits I found compiling the i586 stuff, maybe they 
help...

=====
wrong path to Asterisk source (new version already released)
  File: .../astlinux-dev/package/asterisk/asterisk.mk
     ASTERISK_SITE := ftp://ftp.digium.com/pub/asterisk
  => ASTERISK_SITE := ftp://ftp.digium.com/pub/asterisk/old-releases
=====
wrong path to Rsync source (new version already released)
  File: .../astlinux-dev/package/rsync/rsync.mk
     RSYNC_SITE:=http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/
  => RSYNC_SITE:=http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/old-versions
=====
vsftpd does not compile (looks for wrong - native - libs in its script, this
should probably be a .patch)
  File: .../astlinux-dev/build_i586/vsftpd-2.0.4/vsf_findlibs.sh
     locate_library() { [ ! "$1*" = "`echo $1*`" ]; }
  => WD=$PWD/../root
     locate_library() { [ ! "$WD$1*" = "`echo $WD$1*`" ]; }
=====
minihttpd does not link (switches not passed to make)
  File: .../astlinux-dev/package/minihttpd/minihttpd.mk
     ...SSL_LIBS=-L$(STAGING_DIR)/lib -lssl -lcrypto -C $(MINIHTTPD_DIR)
  => ...SSL_LIBS="-L$(STAGING_DIR)/lib -lssl -lcrypto" -C $(MINIHTTPD_DIR)
=====

Thank you again for any help.

Herbert
