MIPS32 little-endian softfloat Gentoo rootfs update Jan 2015
Hello,

I've again uploaded another snapshot of a little-endian
softfloat MIPS32 rootfs I maintain for a few of my MIPS toys
and QEMU.

It's a complete gentoo installation, with toolchain and
a few lightweight desktop environments as well as some
networking tools.

See the readme at [1] for more information. The main reason
for this update is to make it runnable on current
3.19-rc kernels, which do MIPS abiflags checks and old versions
weren't booting any more without patching the kernel.
This snapshot again boots and runs on vanilla 3.19-rc kernels.
The toolchain included also generates binaries which run on
the latest linux kernels.

Grab the tarball at [2], and if you're curious, file and individual
package listingsare at [3] and [4]. Binary packages are at [5],
untar them at the root of the filesystem.

Hi

Thank you! I have uploaded it to the mirrors as usual. I will drop the
old one in a few days.
