Get yourself a copy of the uClinux-dist:

	http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/

It contains uClibc and pre-canned configurations for the 5272 that is
ready to go.  If you want uClibc,  just select that as your libc
when you run "make config".

Checkout:

	http://www.ucdot.org/

for FAQ's and help on using the dist,

Cheers,
