thx hippo. here's another wrinkle (probably unrelated)....

$ nios2-linux-uclibc-flthdr ~/rootfs/bin/busybox ~/rootfs/bin/busybox bash: nios2-linux-uclibc-flthdr: command not found

btw, i do have a binary called 'flthdr' but it reports problems...

~/buildroot/toolchain_build_nios2/elf2flt$ ./flthdr ~/linux-2.6.16/vmlinux cannot read header of /home/andrew/linux-2.6.16/vmlinux

also, i am getting bad magic errors when busybox tries to start.

any ideas? how do i build nios2-linux-uclibc-flthdr ?

In answer to my own question, I rebuilt nios2-linux-uclibc-flthdr as follows:

cd ~/buildroot/toolchain_build_nios2/elf2flt
make clean
make
make install

Having installed flthdr utility, kernel boots and busybox runs properly now.
