nodejs includes V8 for executing the JavaScript code, and V8 generates
machine code to provide good performances when executing JavaScript.
This means that V8 is architecture dependent: apparently, in deps/v8/,
only IA32, x86-64, ARM and MIPS are supported.

However, I don't understand how you select the target architecture or
how it is detected. Some comments in the configure script also seem to
imply that on ARM, only ARMv7 is supported by V8.

Have you checked this, or did you try only a x86->x86 build?

Thanks!

Thomas

And also, it doesn't work here (Linaro 2012.02 toolchain, ARM) :

I have mainly been testing x86-64->x86 builds.
I tried doing a x86-64->qemu-arm-versatile build and it seems to boot 
and run node.js properly (I am using 2012.08-rc2 with CodeSourcery ARM 
2011.09 external toolchain).
Perhaps it needs a patch to build on an ARM host 
(https://gist.github.com/1608607 might help).

Also, I was not able to get the qemu arm-versatile build to boot using 
ext2 image and the qemu command in board/qemu/arm-versatile/readme.txt.
I get "Cannot open root device or unknown-block(0,0)" when it tries to 
open /dev/sda.
Booting using a cpio initrd image works though.
Anything special I need to boot using ext2 image with ARM in qemu?

Regards,
Jonathan
