Build, Compile errors and package download file was missing...

[wayneburlingame]

Hello sir,
I found your project and it seemed very interesting to me, though not a coder, the linux kernal and OS build process is really interesting.
I would like to complete the project...

From your website, it did not have the new "Config File", so I think I made it to step 2-3 and then had issues.
But I looked on github and redownloaded the full package and started build steps.

Then, when I got to the busybox make/build it failed. There are several online articles about issue.. with glibc , I think.

I did try changing the package download URLS to different versions, from older versions/newer versions and starting all over through steps, but it still failed at same step with busybox.
Not sure how to fix it so I thought I would submit an issue, although it might be user error code ID10T, not sure. :)

The build process works fine on a host machine with Ubuntu 22.04. If you use a host machine with another OS (e.g. Ubuntu 20.04) you have to downgrade both GLIBC and Busybox but I don't remember which combination of versions used to work. You can try the versions that were most up-to-date at the beginning of the last year.

GLIBC_SOURCE_URL=https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glibc/glibc-2.33.tar.bz2
BUSYBOX_SOURCE_URL=https://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.32.1.tar.bz2

Works on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS
