Dear Rob, Ok I did take a fresh restart on this.
Pulled: http://landley.net/aboriginal/downloads/old/binaries/1.2.0/cross-compiler-mipsel.tar.bz2 http://landley.net/aboriginal/downloads/old/binaries/1.2.0/system-image-mipsel.tar.bz2 and http://www.busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.20.0.tar.bz2 I'd like to be able then to produce the same busybox-mipsel than: http://www.busybox.net/downloads/binaries/1.20.0/busybox-mipsel (file size 1565444) which works on my HW target So I did setup disccd on host and launched aboriginal system image with ./dev-environemet.sh (distcc acceleration reported as enabled). Went to busybox-1.20.0 directory and did make defconfig LDFLAGS="--static" make It did generate a static busybox (stripped, file size 1568008, so different from pre-built one!), working inside aboriginal system image... and target! I'm unsure about the issue(s) I had earlier, as I tried so many combinations...To be honest, maybe my transfer method to the target might have altered the files too... Still, compiled binary differs a bit from prebuilt binary, but hey, it works now, so I won't complain! There might be some other LDFLAG or something involved for pre-built binaries. There's only an issue if I rename busibox executable file, but it seems an already discussed issue/feature, and I can live with that. Thanks a lot Rob for your timely help and support. Keep-up the great work on aboriginal: it's really extremely useful!
