Hi,
I tried to make my 1st build on an OSX 10.11.4, following the build howto. Things were going fine: git pull, feed update, menuconfig, defconfig, but when doing make V=s:
make[3]: Entering directory `/Volumes/OpenWRT/openwrt/tools/patch'
mkdir -p /Volumes/OpenWRT/openwrt/dl

No more mirrors to try - giving up.
make[3]: *** [/Volumes/OpenWRT/openwrt/dl/patch-2.7.5.tar.xz] Error 2
make[3]: Leaving directory `/Volumes/OpenWRT/openwrt/tools/patch'
make[2]: *** [tools/patch/compile] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/Volumes/OpenWRT/openwrt'
I checked the patch-2.7.5.tar.xz file and the MD5 on the servers, and they seem to be right (./tools/patch/Makefile and in ./scripts/download.pl). The build was for a D-Link DIR 860L and the target is Ramips MT7621. I tried snapshot and Chaos Calmer, made no difference, googling did not help either.
The other question I have is: how to change the CONFIG_DEFAULT_TARGET_OPTIMIZATION parameters? On the 860L page (https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/d-link/dir-860l) it is recommended to add the settings: -mno-mips16 -mdsp. But these settings do not seem to be shown in the menuconfig. Should I write these settings directly into the .config file? The 860L page mentions that these settings are non standard - do the non standard settings have implications for the build process? (the former patch problem occur with and without these optimization settings).
Thanks,
