Build kernel
KiSS players run uClinux 2.4.17 for ARM processors without a MMU. Specifically, it runs the Sigma Designs' port for the JASPER architecture platform. The GPL'd portions of the kernel have been released by KiSS.
You need to have a working crosscompiler
It was built using a RedHat-6.2 system and the default gcc/binutils installation directory of /usr/local. The binary package is a self extracting script so that it can take care of cleaning up from previous installations which is critical to a working toolchain.
You also need to download the GPL files
Just copy your config file to .config and run
- make ARCH=armnommu CROSS_COMPILE=arm-elf- oldconfig dep linux
So if you want to create a VR-558 kernel you need to
- cp VR-558.release.kernel .config
- make ARCH=armnommu CROSS_COMPILE=arm-elf- oldconfig dep linux
