Hi Matthijs, The document that you are referring to assumes that you have gentoo on the system. For example... I cannot mount /usr/portage as my base system is fedora.
If I have to go by this then I would have to make /opt/gentoo download one of the starges for i686 and then make this as chroot and then again create another directory /opt/gentoo and download i586-gentoo-uclibc-linux. Is that what you are also doing ? Regards, Phani Mount needed directories. Mount the proc and portage directories to your development_rootfs. Makes your system_rootfs's proc and portage directory available from inside of your development_rootfs (after chrooting). Code listing 2.5: mount proc and portage # mount --bind /proc /opt/i586-gentoo-uclibc-linux/proc/ # mount --bind /usr/portage /opt/i586-gentoo-uclibc-linux/usr/portage On Jan 11, 2008 1:38 AM, Matthijs Kooijman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey, > > > My host is i686 and the target processor is Geode LX 800 which is i586 > with > > mmx. > As Ned said, you shouldn't be concerned with crosscompiling at all. > > I got things to work mainly basing myself on > http://www.bulah.com/embedded-guide.html > > I've been keeping track of what I have been doing after following this > guide > (which seemed to be pretty accurate still), which I will publish after > I've > had some time to clean up it up and verify it. > > Gr. > > Matthijs > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) > > iD8DBQFHhzkAz0nQ5oovr7wRAkKgAKCcCQ4t83RAze5s6/li0iqDvFDMhQCfYmKT > 8HeAj80snyy4bY6+Xu6lXoo= > =LMxH > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > >
