Hi all, |
2 |
|

I'm slowly pulling together a build of Gentoo/MUSL for ARMv5 machines. |
4 |
Right now I've cross-compiled a build environment using OpenADK, thrown |
5 |
that onto a Technologic Systems TS-7670, and let it rip. |
6 |
|
7 |
I've had some set backs, with power black-outs and such, but the build |
8 |
is chugging along on the little machine… which has similar |
9 |
specifications to the old Cobalt Qube II that I used to use for |
10 |
Gentoo/MIPS (mipsel4) stage builds. |
11 |
|
12 |
CPU: Freescale i.MX286 at 454MHz (1 core) |
13 |
RAM: 128MB |
14 |
HDD: 1TB SATA via USB 2.0 |
15 |
|
16 |
Gentoo/MUSL is a good fit for these machines I believe due to the low |
17 |
RAM footprint, and gcc aside (which takes nearly a week to compile), is |
18 |
more manageable on this low-end hardware. |

Is there any interest in the stages once they're built? |

I haven't lost my mind... |

...it's backed up on a tape somewhere. |
