No, because currently it wouldn't work. tcc can't build any of the other three packages, and last I checked BusyBox hadn't got a usable shell or an implmentation of "make". I was working on BusyBox before Bruce Perens chased me off that project, and now I'm working on reimplementing the entire thing from scratch (ToyBox), but it's not a high priority. The closest I have is Firmware Linux (http://landley.net/code/firmware), which is a minimal environment made from seven packages: linux uClibc BusyBox bash make gcc binutils That's the current minimum self-bootstrapping environment. > sergey Rob -- "One of my most productive days was throwing away 1000 lines of code." - Ken Thompson. _______________________________________________ Tinycc-devel mailing list Tinycc-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/tinycc-devel
