Sigh. It looked promising, but... $ make menuconfig Checking 'working-make'... ok. Checking 'case-sensitive-fs'... failed. Checking 'getopt'... ok. Checking 'fileutils'... ok. Checking 'working-gcc'... ok. Checking 'working-g++'... ok. Checking 'ncurses'... failed. Checking 'zlib'... ok. Checking 'gawk'... ok. Checking 'flex'... ok. Checking 'unzip'... ok. Checking 'bzip2'... ok. Checking 'patch'... ok. Checking 'perl'... ok. Checking 'python'... ok. Checking 'wget'... ok. Checking 'gnutar'... ok. Checking 'svn'... ok. Checking 'gnu-find'... ok. Checking 'getopt-extended'... ok. Checking 'non-root'... ok. Build dependency: OpenWrt can only be built on a case-sensitive filesystem ... It will probably be easier for me to get some random cheap PC running Ubuntu than to get a non-case-sensitive filesystem working on an existing XP platform. Any recommendations on cross tool packages for X86/X86-64 Ubuntu installations? Or would splicing the linux-mips.org kernel tree under the OpenWrt structure - but under Linux this time - still be the shortest path? Regards, and thanks, Kevin K.
