Until now, the host toolchain was used to build syslinux, as it was not possible to build a 32-bit syslinux with a x86-64 toolchain. However, syslinux requires gnu-efi, and gnu-efi is built using the target toolchain. Mixing different toolchains doesn't work well, so this commit changes the syslinux package to use the target toolchain for syslinux as well. This is made possible by patches 0003-Fix-ldlinux.elf-Not-enough-room-for-program-headers-.patch and 0004-memdisk-Force-ld-output-format-to-32-bits.patch. Since syslinux also contains some utilities that have to run on the host, those have to continue being built with the host toolchain, which requires patch 0005-utils-Use-the-host-toolchain-to-build.patch. Patch 0006-lzo-Use-the-host-toolchain-for-prepcore.patch is about building prepcore, another utility with the host toolchain as it is required at build-time. This was tested using a Buildroot's built x86_64 toolchain, and checked that the output binaries are 32-bits. It was tested as well if they actually boot on hardware.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
