Hi Bob,

This often (always?) happens if you reconfigure busybox and rebuild.
The solution is simply to clean out busybox after reconfiguring to ensure
that everything is rebuilt.

$ make user/busybox_clean

Cheers,
Steve

Hi,

I'm not sure, but it seems BusyBox is difficult to build. I don't really know what is going on, but here's my experience so far.

The first time I attempted to build uClinux (uClinux-dist-20070130, target board M5329EVB, ColdFire 5329), I selected a goodly number of BusyBox "commands". It would not build, seeming to fail during linking. So I reconfigured without it, and it all built fine.

Then, I needed insmod, which seems to only ,be in BusyBox. I added it, selecting insmod (and I think find) and it built properly this time. Later, I added some more, and then it would not build again!

So, I removed BusyBox, built the uClinux image just fine. Then, I reconfigured to include it, and just insmod, and it built again.

I wish I wrote down the errors, but I recall they were of the form 'main_more not found' (or perhaps 'more_main'?). Others include main_ls, main_ls, main_mv (or again, the other order?). So I'm wondering: is there some sort of conflict between BusyBox "commands" and their "standalone" equivalents? Or am I missing something? It seems building BusyBox is rather fragile, but I think it is something I'm doing wrong - is that right?

Thanks, all!
-Bob
