Hi,
I'm currently building (with a cross compiler) a new glibc-2.1.2 based
ramdisk image for SA1100 based systems. So far, the ramdisk uses the
following components:
- libc and libm from glibc-2.1.2 with debug symbols stripped
- busybox for almost all tools
- tinylogin for getty & login
- bash (which is strangely enough not really prepared for cross compilation)
I could have used ash as a shell, but IMHO bash is a bit more easy to use.
My goal is to make a useable ramdisk, not the smallest one. YMMV.
Now I need ld.so, the dynamic linker. I've tried compiling
ld.so-1.9.9.tar.gz (from metalab), but that only seems to support i386,
m68k, and sparc. I can't find a patch for it on the ArmLinux ftp site.
However, I found out that glibc contains ld-2.1.2.so. Is this indeed the
dynamic linker, or is there somewhere a patch for ld.so-1.9.9 available?
BTW: do I need other libraries except libc and libm?
