my recent curiosity about MIPS was inspired by a former student asking what it would take to build a root filesystem for the SEAD-3:
http://www.mips.com/products/development-kits/mips-sead-3/ he'd already built for the routerstation pro and, according to him, the fundamental difference is that rs pro defaults to big endian, while the SEAD-3 is little endian. he already has u-boot and the kernel, he just wanted to build a corresponding rootfs. after a *very* cursory glance at the layers, i suggested that it looked like all he had to do was set: DEFAULTTUNE = "mips32el" in his local.conf to override the default of "mips32" in the file tune-mips32.inc. i'm quite prepared to be totally wrong about this, so if someone has a better answer, i'm open to suggestions. rday p.s. i was originally going to suggest the SEAD-3 as the next MIPS board until he told me it cost $2K. ouch. -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
