RE: [U-Boot-Users] ELDK 2.2.0 (patched 2.1.0) doesn't install on Gentoo

By 'patched' I assume you mean using the patch found here:
ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/tmp/ELDK-update-2.2.0.tar.bz2
If that is the case, you have not patched it correctly or forgot to patch it before creating your iso/cdrom. I have installed the 'patched' version on several Gentoo boxes and it works fine.
The problem you describe was the behavior prior to patching.

Hello,
I'm trying to install the ELDK 2.2.0 (i.e. a patched 2.1.0) on a Gentoo 1.4 system. To do so I prepared a CD as described on www.denx.de. I already used the CD on two SuSE 8.2 systems with no problems. On the Gentoo system the installation starts just fine but suddenly stops without an error message.
-- # ./install -d /opt/eldk-2.2.0 ppc_82xx
Do you really want to install into /opt/eldk-2.2.0 directory[y/n]?: y
Creating directories Done Installing cross RPMs
Preparing... ################################################## [100%] # --
I attached a strace of what the installer is doing. Maybe somebody has an idea what is going wrong and how to work around.
TIA Mark Jonas

Where are you guys getting ELDK version 2.2.0?? I don't see it at a tag in the CVS repository, on ftp.leo.org/pub/eldk or on ftp.denx.de.
I've extremely interested in getting the ELDK to install on my Gentoo machine.
Tom

There is no official release of 2.2.0; the next release will be 3.0. But reading the FAQ gives you some hints ;-)

Thanks Wolfgang but it still doesn't work for me. Probably because I am using what Gentoo considers an unstable system build (meaning beta releases of system libs).
I had been talking to Paul Ruhland offline about his success in installing on Gentoo and the only difference is he builds a Gentoo stable system environment.
Is there any way I could get specifics on libs in question that I might be able to better isolate my problem(s)?
Thanks again,
Tom
P.S. Is this the correct mailing list to discuss ELDK issues or should it be the linux ppc embedded list?

Probably. Don't do this, then ;-)

Run "ldd" on the RPM binary to see what it needs; please be aware the glibc will dlopen other libs as well (like libnss*).

I really don't know either.

My Gentoo installation is (except for Mozilla Thunderbird, Firebird and Samba) also a stable build and it doesn't work. These are my build settings:
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -funroll-loops -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe"
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS is not defined.
