It's not pretty, but workable.
I'm not convinced it matters at all. Self hosting on an embedded architecture is, as has been mentioned, pretty pointless. Using a kernel compile as a test isn't such a great idea. Stress tests of that kind are not particularly useful for pinning down bugs - so your kernel compile failed, what now? Far better to use LTP tests or similar that are designed to be reproduceable and tunable for your system. For example I don't think I'll ever be able to self host a kernel build on a board with only 32Mb of on-board RAM. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
