Can someone detail the proper and updated way to build the latest linux kernel for openrisc it seems as though the beginning section of http://or1k.debian.net/tmp/opencores/opencores.org/or1k/OpenRISC_GNU_tool_chain.html is outdated the site openrisc.net is no longer active. I attempted to pull the new uclibc and linux repositories from https://github.com/skristiansson/uClibc-or1k and https://github.com/skristiansson/linux.

Mainly I am looking for the proper way to install or32-linux-gcc which is required to compile the linux kernel. I have the or1k-elf toolchain and from what I understand or32 should be dated but right now is still required to build linux kernel from scratch. Can anyone give me direction?

You might want to try the OpenRisc Mailman forum. It tends to get a lot more traffic than this one. Check out this link here for more info.

The initial issue I found digging through previous IRC discussions was resolvable by changing the line in the file arch/openrisc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S from OUTPUT_FORMAT("elf32-or32", "elf32-or32", "elf32-or32") to OUTPUT_FORMAT("elf32-or1k", "elf32-or1k", "elf32-or1k"); however, other issues later surfaced and I found that it wasn't really kept up to date compared to the one in the repository held by openrisc. I actually found that for now it is not advantagous to use the latest linux kernel and instead use the one provided at https://github.com/openrisc/linux



Thank you Dan I will Look into this forum
