| This is klibc, what is intended to be a minimalistic libc subset for |
| use with initramfs. It is deliberately written for small size, |
| minimal entaglement and portability, not speed. It is definitely a |
| work in progress, and a lot of things are still missing. |
| |
| |
| The build procedure is not very polished yet, but it should work like |
| this: |
| |
| a) Create a symlink called "linux" pointing to a reasonably recent |
| Linux kernel tree (2.4 or 2.5 should be OK.) This tree must have |
| the include/asm symlink set up for the architecture you're |
| compiling for, and include/linux/autoconf.h must exist. The |
| easiest way to make sure of all of these is to do a "make config" |
| or any of its variants on the kernel tree is question, followed by |
| a "make dep". |
| |
| b) Change ARCH in the main Makefile to match your architecture. |
| If you're cross-compiling, set CROSS to your toolchain prefix. |
| |
| c) Type "make" and pray... |
| |
| d) Try the test programs in the tests/ directory. They should run... |
