I recently read this post over at Hack a Day Getting root on a Sony TV, which uses a script that can be found here for use on Sony Bravia TVs. The script uses BusyBox and my question is based on the README found here. I have two questions about this: 1. What are the steps I have to take in order to compile BusyBox for the mipsel architecture? 2. How do I include the GLibc / Linux kernel versions for your TV in my BusyBox binary?

Has anyone else gotten this trick to work successfully?

Thanks in advance for your help and time.

Compiling for another architecture is called cross compiling, but of course you would have read that on the Busybox FAQ. Not to mention the link provided there to cross-compilers for all architectures you could ask for.

You could try find a pre-built MIPS binary, the best would be to ask the Busybox list directly if in doubt :)
