I've back ported the patches you did for eglibc-2.16 for eglibc-2.13, to use with my gcc-4.5 recipe, for the PowerPC 440 target. With that patch applied, in a local copy of my meta-openembedded/toolchain-layer, containing both the eglibc-2.13 and gcc-4.5, recipe,

building against the poky/master commit id works:

gcc-cross: Make gcc-cross-initial as the only intermediate gcc stage

I am able to get to the shell prompt, and get no crashes upto this point. The root file system seems to be working fine, and I am able to ping the host machine.

It is with the application of the next patch, that I get a an init crash on the console, as I have been seeing earlier.

eglibc: Fix eglibc-initial and let eglibc depend on it

I've narrowed down the init problem, to the application of the above patch, but I'm unable to figure out why it is failing. Any suggestions?

Best regards,
