- To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:
- 1) run 'make'
- 2) wait while it compiles
- 3) run './UMlinux' to test out your root filesystem using User Mode Linux.
- You do not need to be root to build or run this system. Each Virtual Terminal
- will be opened in its own window. You must be running X and have xterm
- installed for this to work -- otherwise you see a few errors on bootup as it
- tries to launch xterms. It will still work on a console, but you will not
- have access to the other Virtual Terminals.
- Also, you the uClibc and busybox source trees that
- are downloaded are fully set up for anonymous CVS access. You may need to set
- up your system for anonymous CVS access by running the following command:
- cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@busybox.net:/var/cvs login
- Then just hit Enter when it prompts you for a password. You only need to do
- this once. Then, whenever you want to update your system, just go into the
- busybox or uClibc directory and run 'cvs update'.
- Have fun!

- NOTE:
- For './configure' to behave itself with certain applications, you may need
- to create a symlink under "/lib" on your system that points to the uClibc
- shared library loader in the staging directory. For example, on my system
- $ cd /lib
- $ sudo ln -s /home/andersen/buildroot/build/staging_dir/lib/ld-uClibc.so.0 ld-uClibc.so.0
- If you don't use sudo, run 'su -' to become root when making the link. If
- you aren't root it won't work. The reason for this symlink, is it allows
- './configure' to actually execute the test applications it compiles against
- uClibc during the configuration process....
