I.e. be Buildroot / Autotools ready

This could be a development addon drive perhaps or a drive that can be switched to for dev puposes.

So far my efforts to provide this have met with various (documented here) disasters.

Is this a crazy idea clearly spawned in the warped cradle that is a madman's mind?
Answers on a postcard. or here. that would also work.

Thoughts on my moving these hiccups forward via external tools? anyone?
Or something I missed perhaps.

I'm leaning toward elastoplasting with externally genned stuff right now.
Buildroot I'm looking at you. *goes off to fiddle with things that may or may not help*
I did start looking at what would be required to run Buildroot in the emulator . . . .
Got scared off by the long list of dependencies of dependencies of dependencies . . .

But I agree with you in the long-term - Rob's idea of a development system is handicapped by his aversion to GPLv3.

I really hate to drop what I am doing at the moment, but just how badly do you need a better dev-system image?
Could you take a few days break at this point.
