Summary

0001416: Busybox compiled but not working on SH3

Description

I am using buildroot-20070615.tar.bz2 with combination of uclibc-0.9.29 , binutils-2.17 , busybox-1.6.0 and gcc-4.2.0.
I made the following changes :
1. During compilation, I had to change a line in toolchain/gcc/gcc-uclibc-3.x.mk
Patch is attached.
2. I had to add libgcc_s.so* libraries in the root file system manually.

The current situation is, the toolchain is built and I can compile and run simple "Hello world!" like programs dynamically. But, the busybox does not start and give any command prompt on serial console or tty0.

It gives the message like "Please press Enter to activate this console".
After pressing Enter's, same message appears again and again.
One more problem is, I can get login prompt on tty2 or so, but I cannot login. I cannot configure the user and respective passwords coz I dont have any command prompt to do so.

One more thing. The simple application has Flags=0x2,sh2 whereas the busybox gets built with Flags=0x16.
