Hi,
I've tested BIRD on my Linux laptop and it seems that the software works fine : ) Now I've got a question here: All I know is that it's something like embedded system running Linux kernel Just like some chips on a board, no display, no input, etc., but with several Ethernet Interfaces. Can I successfully install BIRD on this?
If you are able to install software on that embedded system (for example you have a crosscompiler for that system and you are able to upload compiled software to that system) then it is easy to crosscompile Bird and install it. There are some minor issues with crosscompilation of Bird - you have to patch 'configure' script to skip endianity test. Definitely, i should make a package for OpenWRT Linux (distribution targeted for embedded routers). -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'SanTiago' Zajicek (email: santiago@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
