From 2f567cb70da6f2f135d57728dabdc5d590878338 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Petazzoni Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2012 17:40:37 +0100 Subject: Add default configuration for the AArch64 Foundation V8 simulator Note that this configuration doesn't build entirely: the user must manually run "make busybox-menuconfig" and disable the "Mount NFS filesystems" option, because the toolchain does not have RPC support. This issue will be fixed once the support for toolchain without RPC will be integrated.
