Hi all,

I am working on a project with custom hardware, and the openwrt firmware covers a lot of what we require (I have been using the standard buildroot platform from buildroot.org for my build environment until now), but I like a lot of the features included in the openwrt build tree.

Our platform has an Atmel AT91RM9200 SOC on it, as well as ethernet and GPRS|EDGE|HSDPA comms.

Does anyone perhaps have some notes lying around as to how to prepare for a new platform?

I have so far created a target/linux/mytarget folder but I am missing a few subtle points. I manage a build to the point of building libpcap, where I get the following error message:  cannot determine linux version when cross-compiling.

I am sure there are a few constants I am not configuring correctly, and anyone involved in new ports I am sure would be able to throw me a pointer or two!

Thanks in advance

Hamish
