This is an ext2 + filesystem for i386 containing all the development software you need to + build your own uClibc applications. With bash, awk, make, gcc, g++, + autoconf, automake, ncurses, zlib, openssl, openssh, gdb, strace, valgrind, + busybox, GNU coreutils, and more, this should have pretty much everything + you need to get started building your own applications linked against + uClibc. By using a uClibc only system, you can avoid all the painful + cross-configuration problems that have made using uClibc somewhat painful + in the past. A powerpc and an arm version are in progress. Expect them + to be released shortly.... + + <p> + + The <a href="ftp://ftp.uclibc.org/uClibc/root_fs_0.9.17.pre-i386.bz2/"> + uClibc development system is an 18MB bzip2 compressed ext2 filesystem</a>, + so be prepared to wait if you are on a slow link. If you wish to have more + space, you can loop mount it and 'cp -a' the contents to their own + partition, or do what I did... <EM>WARNING, the following can be very + dangerous. Please be sure you know what you are doing before trying this. + I am not responsible if you lose all your important data.</EM>I had a spare + hard drive (in my case /dev/hdg but you'll want to adapt this to your own + needs), so I partitioned it with a single ext2 partition filling the drive + (in my case /dev/hdg1).
