Busybox for powerpc doesnt compile

Sun Jan 30 08:23:59 EST 2011

Hi,

 Thanks for the details. Glibc configures, makes, and installs fine:
../glibc-2.9/configure
--host=powerpc-linux --target=powerpc-linux-
--prefix=/opt/mpc8250/tools/glibc2.9 --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu
--with-headers=/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/include/
--cache-file=config.cache

Now, I try to compile busybox.1.17.1 as : 
 make ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-

At the very end, errors as :
Trying libraries: crypt m
 Library crypt is not needed, excluding it
 Library m is not needed, excluding it
Final link with: <none>
powerpc-linux-strip: there are no sections to be copied!
make: *** [busybox] Error 1

.config:
CONFIG_EXTRA_CFLAGS="-I/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/include/
-L/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/lib/
-L/opt/mpc8250/tools/glibc2.9/opt/mpc8250/tools/glibc2.9/lib -nostdlib"

Can any please suggest why?

Thanks & Regards,
D.Giriprasad

Hi All,

 I am trying to compile busybox-1.17.1 for mpc8250 based powerpc architecture. My settings are as :

export LDFLAGS="-nostdlib -L/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/lib/"
export LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/lib/

echo $PATH
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/lib/ccache:/opt/mpc8250/tools/usr/bin/:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/root/bin

 I specified in menuconfig:

CFLAGS as -I/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/include/ -L/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/lib/

make ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux- --include-dir=/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/include/ PREFIX=/home/user/target/mpc8250/rootfs

It seems you toolchian dosen't contain libcrypt.you can compile it into your toolchain and try again.

Also tried:
make ARCH=powerpc CROSS=powerpc-linux- --include-dir=/opt/mpc8250/tools/ppc_6xx/usr/include/ PREFIX=/home/user/target/mpc8250/rootfs

Any clues as to why this happens?
