You shouldn't have to install anything to do cross compiles, that's
all handled by build.sh in /usr/src. You just do ./build.sh -m hpcmips
<etc etc> and it builds everything as hpcmips executables. Is this
what you're doing?

I wasn't aware of any kernel patches needed for that machine, but I
don't have one either. If the patch is necessary, it's probably worth
sending a pr and getting it integrated, if possible.
