Dear All,
I started compiling busy box by downloading the source from the below link by executing the following commands
http://omapedia.org/wiki/Android_Installing_Busybox_Command_Line_Tools
ubuntu@ubuntu-laptop:~$ git clone git://busybox.net/busybox.git
ubuntu@ubuntu-laptop:~$ cd busybox/
ubuntu@ubuntu-laptop:~$ git checkout -b my_working_branch 1_19_3
configured the busybox using the following command
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- menuconfig
In menuconfig set the following options
Busybox Settings --> Build Options --> Build Busybox as a static binary (no shared libs) - Enable this option by pressing "Y"
Busybox Settings --> Build Options --> Cross compiler prefix - Set this option equal to "arm-none-linux-gnueabi-"
Busybox Settings --> General Configuration --> Don't use /usr - Enable this option by pressing "Y"
Linux Module Utilities --> [ ] Simplified modutils
[*] insmod
[*] rmmod
[*] lsmod
[*] Pretty output
[ ] modprobe
[ ] depmod
Linux Module Utilities --> [ ] Support version 2.2/2.4 Linux kernels
Linux Module Utilities --> [ ] Try to load module from a mmap'ed area
Linux Module Utilities --> [*] Support tainted module checking with new kernels
Linux Module Utilities --> () Default directory containing modules - Set this option to nothing
Linux Module Utilities --> () Default name of modules.dep - Set this option to nothing
And builded using the below command
ubuntu@ubuntu-laptop:~/busybox$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi-
