Native x86 toolchain/Bluecat Installation/ECRD timeouts

  • Discovered problems with Native x86 toolchain.
  • Attempting Bluecat installation from CDs - taking a long time!

Native X86 Toolchain Build Problem

netsnmp/t3 mount/PPC Toolchain

  • Build NetSNMP 5.1.1
  • Had Jeff export t3:/usr/lynx/archive/ecr so that ECRDig can gain access to auxilary files that people store there. Currently cat.php doesn't work with all the file types it can hit there.
  • Figured out that the tar images were not being recreated due to int_tools getting stuck in the demos. Recreated PPC tar image and unpacked it onto target machine.

Bluecat CDs

  • Burned 4 CDs for Bluecat
  • Continuing to hunt down problem with PPC Toolchain build. Missed a file. After including it libc.a does have atoi but it doesn't seem to be being packaged into the product image!
