[Buildroot] Buildroot and Linux/ARM on AT91SAM9260

[Wayne Keenan]

I have tried a couple of combinations and a pre-built binary, my
environments have been:

1.

buildroot: r20692 | thomasez | 2007-12-27 12:00:12 +0000 (Thu, 27 Dec 2007)
gcc: 4.2.1
uClibc:2.28.3
binutils: 2.1.8
busybox: 1.7.2


2.
I then tried with binutils 2.1.7 - the result was a larger quantity of
gibberish  than before was output.

3.
I then tried a pre-built binary from
ftp://www.linux4sam.org/pub/linux/linux-2.6.22-at91sam9263ek.bin

and the pre-built binary output even more that 2.1.8.

so, I have managed to go from no gibber to increasingly amounts of gibber,
Im hoping someone can help me get sanity back again please?

This is a Calao systems USB9263 device, and I'm wondering if I need to
perform some kind of extra initialisation.

Thanks
Wayne
