[SOLVED] busybox sh does not run and cannot login when eabi enable d

Hi Peter,
   I think you misunderstood what I meant by "Unbelievable". Facial expressions are so difficult to communicate via text :-). What I had meant was that I had spent so much time trying to solve this problem and it turned out to be so easy to fix. I was led on a wild goose chase because everything worked wit OABI enabled but failed with EABI enabled.

Why is that hard to understand? If you target doesn't have a FPU (and
you don't build your kernel with FPU emulation) things are bound to go
wrong when you configure uClibc to use one.
