Hello All,
I am running busybox on an Atmel AT91SAM9263 Evaluation kit. Perhaps
because it is minimum version, I can not execute executable files. And
also, I installed arm-linux-g++-4.1 on it and when I run this command it
says it could not be found even though typing arm and pushing tab does
bring up the command indicating the command is in the PATH. Anyways, I
decided to put a more fuller configuration of Busybox on the kit. These
are the steps I am following.
1. I am using Ubuntu in a VMplayer on a Pentium machine. I downloaded
Busybox file "busybox-1.13.2.tar" on the VMPlayer running Ubuntu.
2. tar xvf busybox-1.13.2.tar
3. cd busybox-1.13.2
4. Because I want to run Busybox on an ARM based board, i changed
.config file this this folder. I changed
CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILER_PREFIX="arm-linux-". I have arm-linux-gcc installed.
5. Next I run "make defconfig" and "make" command.
I am not sure what to do next. After make command; I see two files in
the folder : busybox and busybox-unstripped. When I give command "file
busybox" it tells me it is an ELF 32 bit LSB executable, Intel 80386.
Should not it show it as ARM file because i changed the CROSS_COMPILE
option?
Please tell me what to do next ! Every help will be deeply appreciated.
Aman.
