Looking at the system map from the generic build of 2.4.3, it looks like
the code is 64 bit. The upper 32 bits are "f" instead of 0. I built it
using the R4600 flag. This differs from the system map for 2.4.0-test9
where the upper 32 bits are 0. For the indy, do I specify mips2 to
generate 32 bit code? objdump says it is ELF32, but it doesn't look like
that. I would like to generate 32bit.
thanks,
john
