Hi, I'm porting a 64-bit linux kernel provided for a mips4 architecture to a mips3 target board. The existing NFS root file system has been compiled for a 64-bit mips4 architecture. If I mount this file system, the init does not run. After mounting the filesystem, I get the following messages and the kernel hangs. ------------------------------------------------- Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 192.168.5.93 Looking up port of RPC 100005/1 on 192.168.5.93 VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem). Freeing unused kernel memory: 132k freed ------------------------------------------------ I also tried to mount a 32-bit working NFS root filesystem. Still I get the same problem. I thought 32-bit binaries will execute fine in 64-bit kernel. Do I have to recompile the binutils and glibc for my target file system?
