To do this you need to do the following:
checkout mips2 branch
cd into it
make TARGET_ARCH=mips kernel-toolchain
cp sys/conf/ldscript.mips sys/conf/ldscript.mips.bak
cp sys/conf/ldscript.mips.cfe sys/conf/ldscript.mips
make TARGET_ARCH=mips buildkernel KERNCONF=SENTRY5
copy kernel from objdir to a tftp server
on wgt634u with console attached, from cfe prompt:
boot -elf xx.xx.xx.xx:/kernel
...where xx.xx.xx.xx is the IP address of your tftp server.
then watch the sparks fly.
Note that the console support currently uses the same kludge as the
Malta target, that is, the memory addresses which the uart is mapped at
are hardcoded. DELAY() is stubbed as the clock needs to be calibrated.
