After a couple of hours, weeks, month i created an crosscompiled kernel package for my cobalt. While this I got some warning that kernel configuration tells mips-linux-gnu and I am using mipsel-linux-gnu for compiling. So now my question what type of cross compiler do I need mipsel oder mips linux-gnu? One more question to cross compiling the kernel I only ran Make-kpkg –arch mips –subarch cobalt –cross_compile mipsel-linux-gnu- The kernelpath an CC I exported. Do I have to add some patches before compiling or would this compiled kernel work correctly?
The reason why I need to cross compile the kernel is that I need to compile madwifi for cobalt as kernel module. While trying compile it on cobalt itself it cancelled with some error. After cross compiling the kernel I tried to compile the madwifi
Make ARCH=mips CC=mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc KERNELPATH=… After the message that the kernel config tells mips2 but the other configuration matches mips4, I change it in the header file of the hal and the compilation succeeded.
I there a better way to compile madwifi for the cobalt? Actually I want to know how correctly cross compile for cobalt.
