Choosing the target binary format is disabled in by configuration because I use an ARM device. The ARM nommu internal toolchain needs some work, similar to the patchset i've sent for blackfin fixes. For starters the tuple is wrong, it should be *-uclinux-* (instead of *-linux-*) in package/Makefile.in And there are other details regarding uclibc configuration for example to fix. It would probably be a good idea to add M-series and R-series cortex cpu definitions too since those are the most likely to be used for nommu. I'm looking into it but i make no promises, i lack hardware to test this and qemu doesn't emulate anything useful regarding it. Regards.
