[microblaze-uclinux] Building uClinux for Insight/Memec S3MB1500 board



Hello,

I'm new to both uClinux and the Microblaze and I'm hoping I can get some basic questions answered regarding building uClinux for the MicroBlaze on the Insight/Memec S3MB1500 board.

I have a full CVS checkout of uClinux-dist and uClinux-2.4.x on an Ubuntu 5.10 Linux system. I've also created the symbolic link mapping "uClinux-2.4.x" as "uClinux-dist/linux-2.4.x". My next step is to change directory into the "uClinux-dist" directory and run "make menuconfig".

Unfortunately, I don't see a "Target Platform Selection" menu item as indicated in the documentation on the MicroBlaze uClinux website. I'm not sure if this is because of recent changes to the uClinux source tree or not. I do see a "Vendor/Product/Selection --->" and "Kernel/Library/Defaults Selection --->" menu item. Is this what I should see?

In any case I press on and choose "Vendor/Product Selection --->" to then select "Insight" as the Vendor and "mbvanilla_net" as the Insight Product. Then I exit these menus. I have a feeling this is where I'm going off track.

Next I then choose "Kernel/Library/Defaults Selections" and select "uClibc" and "Default all settings (lose changes)". I then exit these menus.

When I exit where the make system goes through the kernel configuration process.

Is the process above at all correct configuring the uClinux kernel for the "Insight/Memec S3MB1500" hardware I'm targeting?

I apologize if this question is very basic, but hopefully I'll be able to pick this stuff up quickly once I learn the lay of the land a little better.

Thanks,

Mike Thompson
