- buildroot generates a toolchain which is basically similar to the toolchain I was using off the NIOS II Linux CD, however, this is nios2-linux-uclibc... and the other was nios2-elf-gcc...?? - I can use either to build the kernel the same way I have been doing, it's just I guess the buildroot toolchain requires an extra step to convert the vmlinux file to a .bin file that can be downloaded??? - /buildroot/build_nios2/root <-- this is the root filesystem that I will want initramfs to use?? - I should use busybox and set the target to /buildroot/build_nios2/root so it can populate it with applications?? - Now busybox requires uclibc... is that something I have to download again, because buildroot already used it, didn't it? Do I have to setup the environment somehow to know where uclibc is?? One thing I don't understand is how the nodes in /dev are created since it doesn't seem that busybox does that, or buildroot...
