Unslung/WL500g packages available for Oleg's firmware

Problem solved again using 'mips' as ARCH (not MIPSEL) at the buildroot 'make menuconfig' stage. (This should be a problem since MIPS is big endian while MIPSEL is a shorcut for MIPS Little Endian)

So compilation restarts... and now fails with :

/home/buildroot/build_mips/staging_dir/mips-linux-uclibc/bin/ld: cannot open crtbeginS.o: No such file or directory

As usual, no crtbeginS.o in my toolchain's dirs.

[Jean-Fabrice]

I wasn't able to get rid of the crtbeginS.o problem

So I start a new way :
I rebuild a full libc toolchain using gcc 3.2.3, binutils 2.13.2.1 and glibc 2.2.5.
This seems to be ok after some hard work and many hours...

Now, how can I build mipsel-uclibc-gcc since compiling latest uclibc doesn't create it ? uclibc building only produce libs.

JF, no way. You've to use uclibc instead of glibc...
BTW, have you checked openwrt buildroot for correct uclibc config? We should use the same. As for gcc/binutils - well, we would probably switch to gcc-3.3.x then...

[Oleg]

P.S. Sorry for delay, I've missed this post somehow.

[Jean-Fabrice]

I was trying a glibc toolchain since broadcom uclibc toolchain seems to make use of the glibc one they provide (mipsel-uclibc-gcc is very small. is it a wrapper for mipsel-linux-gcc which links against uclibc ?)

I'll give a look at openwrt uclibc and check their config file.
I'm now making a last try with gcc 3.2.3 & uclibc snapshot and switch to gcc 3.3 if no success.

Yes, this is a wrapper. Actually, uclibc switched from wrappers to real toolchain at some point.

P.S. uclibc 0.9.28 released a few days ago.
