The http site automatically redirects to the https variant, so let's just use that as the default. The mirror list URL http://search.cpan.org/mirror seems outdated (re-directed to https://metacpan.org/mirrors aka 'Not Found - The resource you requested could not be found.'). The closest matching URLs we found were: https://www.cpan.org/SITES.html http://mirrors.cpan.org/map.html http://mirrors.cpan.org/ That last one has all the list, so we use that; the second is a world map, so we also include it.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
