    [UPDATE: missed checking in a file, hence the .1 release. Old +broken tarball's been moved to old.]

    + +

    Aboriginal Linux 1.2.4.1 +is based on hg commit 1612, using +linux 3.10, busybox 1.21.1, and toybox 0.4.5.

    + +

    Took a while to work around QEMU's issues with arm, and sparc, and +sh4, but it's got workarounds for all of them now. That means x86, x86_64, +mips, mipsel, sparc, sh4, powerpc, and arm all work. (And sparc can actually +do native builds now, under qemu 1.5.)

    + +

    The mips64 target is bit-rotted (I think qemu changed out from under it +somewhere between 1.0 and 1.2), and m68k support in qemu still isn't finished. +Todo items.

    + +

    Meanwhile, toybox replaced 4 more commands in the build (mv, stat, ifconfig, +and split). Upcoming work: I've done part of the architecture to put +simple-root-filesystem in initramfs (or initmpfs) +always and splice the native-compiler in at runtime from +/dev/hda with symlinks, that might be ready next release. And I'm chipping +away at the switch to musl-libc.org (basically a complete rewrite of +sources/toys/ccwrap.c to _not_ assume uClibc).

    + +

    Binaries in the usual places.
