Re: Mirabox kernel help needed

2018-02-01 Thread amon

Another question: I loaded a package set for a full development
environment on one of my Miraboxes. I presume that I could just
do the kernel build directly on the target hardware? I would
think so, but I've not heard anyone else say they did it that
way. Slow does not matter that much. It can run over the weekend
if it has to.

Thanks for getting back to me. I hope you are right. What little
I have found via searches with Google were not comforting, to
say the least.

I can't do a boot from the sdcard for this application as I
will probably be using it for something else. I think that is
why I was thinking I need to do something with uboot.

I don't have a cross compiler, although I have heard there
might be one at Globalscale. I have built cross-compilers
but not since I did one to build m68000 code for a NeXT from
an i486... needless to say, it took several days to do the
3 compiles to generate it. I hope the world has gotten easier
in the ensuing two decades.

I'm working on some stuff where I have to be quite conservative
as I hope to put it into a cubesat someday if we can raise the
cash for it.
