Not to mention, the Cobalt stages are MIPS IV, and therefore includes some 64-bit instructions, the WL500g will be MIPS32, and does not understand 64-bit instructions. So you can expect illegal instructions left, right & centre. As Stephen has pointed out too, messing with CHOST is asking for it... I speak from experience. :-) (tried it on my x86-based laptop ... boy did I have fun finding the pieces and putting them back together again :-/) -- ____ _ Stuart Longland (a.k.a Redhatter) / _ \ ___ ___ __| |__ __ __ Gentoo Linux/MIPS Cobalt and Docs - (_) \ / \ ; \(__ __)/ \ / \ Developer \ // O _| / /\ \ | | | /\ | /\ | / / \ /__| / \ \ | | | \/ | \/ | (___/ \____/|_; |_| \_/ \__/ \__/ http://dev.gentoo.org/~redhatter
