switching root devices confuses people
[openwrt.git] / obsolete-buildroot / README
1 This is a modified uClibc buildroot, customized to build OpenWRT.
2
3 If you already have the linksys tarball (check make/openwrt.mk for the
4 version used), then move/copy/symlink it into sources/dl. At the
5 moment (2004/03/05) I'm using wrt54gv2.2.02.2.tgz.
6
7 Simply running 'make' will build openwrt-code.bin and a tarball of
8 the kernel modules. Customizations of the kernel, uClibc, and busybox
9 are possible by modifying the appropriate config files in source.
10 Copies of the stock openwrt Makefile, uClibc.config, busybox.config,
11 are included with a '-openwrt' suffix.
12
13 Remember that different configurations of uClibc may not be binary
14 compatible. Also, uClibc is not necessarily binary compatible between
15 versions. In particular, dynamicly linked applications and libraries
16 built with the linksys/broadcom toolchain are NOT binary compatible
17 with current uClibc.
