Can someone please tell me how to "Apply buildroot-20071216.linuxonpsppatch"?

I am trying to follow the instructions in the "Building the MIPS(el) toolchain for uClinux on PSP" document but cannot figure this step out.

Hi,
I am desperately trying to compile the last toolchain for psp. Everything goes right until i try to compile libstdc++. I have tried with gcc-4.2.1 and gcc-4.3.0. I have the same error messages:

thanks SpikeX for the help....

I have gotten a little further with compiling buildroot... but am still getting errors along the way.

any chance of someone putting up a pre-patched buildroot?

this would make building much easier.

can someone please share buildroot version 20071216 ........ i cant seem to find it
thanx

bcarroll · Joined: 12 May 2008 Posts: 11

do the other patches need to be renamed or will they be applied with the default file names?

- Copy gcc-4.2.1.linuxonpsppatch to $(BUILDROOT)/toolchain/gcc/4.2.1/
- Copy uclibc-0.9.29.linuxonpsppatch to $(BUILDROOT)/toolchain/uClibc/
- Copy elf2flt.linuxonpsppatch to $(BUILDROOT)/toolchain/elf2flt/
- Apply buildroot-20071216.linuxonpsppatch

A step by step tutorial would be great....

sim,
I cloned your buildroot repository
hg clone http://hg.sequanux.org/buildroot-psp

but all of the files end in .i and are not named correctly (Makefile is _m_a_k_e_f_i_l_e.i)

did I miss a step?

no one has the buildroot-20071216 ....... i compiled this toolchain before but now i reinstalled my linux, the buildroot which i used to have is gone now ;
please some one share it

SpikeX · Joined: 14 Jan 2007 Posts: 8 Location: Germany

For buildroot version 20071216 the following should do the trick:
svn co --revision 20650 svn://uclibc.org/trunk/buildroot

20650 is the last revision before 12/16/2007 and so it should be equivalent to the 20071216 snapshot. I didn't try to compile this version yet, but patching works without any problems.

Im wondering, does anyone got basic SIO keyboard to work with ? I have SIO keyboard, but when enabled SIO port I got crap chars instead of pressed keys. How to fix it ? Anyone got it to work?

has anyone (Jackson) given any thought to including the buildroot-20071216 source in the download section?

Is the PSPSDK required for building the kernel?
I noticed a bunch of errors related to mising pspsdk header files during the kernel compilation.

vijay · Joined: 03 Jan 2008 Posts: 25

ye it is
u have to modify the path to pspsdk in config gile

I finally got everything compiled without any errors....
but now I am unable to load the kernel. I saw a previous post from roge (didn't see any follow-ups for this one) about decompressing the kernel.. then the psp shut down. I am having this same issue. Any ideas how to resolve?

---edit---

After:
make clean && make ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-linux- vmlinux.bin

The kernel now loads... but dies (locks up the PSP) on /init with
BINFMT_FLAT: bad header magic

Does this mean the problem is with my compile of busybox?

bcarroll · Joined: 12 May 2008 Posts: 11

problem was with busybox compile...
typo in the make cmd line... -W1 and -Wl do very different things.

Now I have a new problem....

Will I be able to run Wine on uClinuxPSP to run Windows 95 (not XP) apps... like Visual C++ 6.0? I guess it's a question whether X Windows runs on uClinuxPSP first...

Oh, come on! How much memory do you think it takes to run Win95 and Visual C6?!

Okay, will we be able to use gcc/g++ and compile our own source codes under uClinux-PSP? I guess we need to port gcc/g++ to uClinux-PSP right? Same with X Windows, and KDevelop, etc.

Matan at http://www.hacker.co.il/psp/bochs/ says he boots up Windows 95 under bochs quite fast, and Solitaire was playable too. So am thinking maybe Visual C++ 6.0 would run...

J.F. are you the guy who did JFduke?

You waited for this, you got it now:

The prebuild Buildroottoolchain is now avalible from Jackson Mo at: http://jacksonm80.googlepages.com/linuxonpsp.htm

Sorry for my bad english ;)

Has anyone had success using ncurses? I tried to cross compile ncurses 5.6 and ended up with ncurses.h missing function prototypes and I'm getting undefined references to initscr etc.

Hi

I was wondering if it is possible to get ADOM http://www.adom.de/ to run? I get some error about bad header magic, is it because of the file system? Any suggestions? And sorry if this is a rather stupid question, but I have tried to get the game to work for a long time, but since it is my first linux ecperience it is quite tricky :)
