Thanks for the help. I had tried that before. the file package download site version had changed and I fixed that. Now when I do the build I get:

gzip -d -c /usr/local/install/downloads/libdaemon-0.12.tar.gz | tar -C /home/calfee/buildroot/arm/buildroot/build_arm   -xf -
toolchain/patch-kernel.sh /home/calfee/buildroot/arm/buildroot/build_arm/libdaemon-0.12 package/libdaemon/ \*.patch

I have tried several other defconfig packages, and they all seem to have their own peculiar failures. This failed after the busybox build, so I guess it is a selected package. I know you don't have time to diagnose my problem, that is why I am looking for someone who has a recent arm926 package building with pure buildroot files. Maybe there isn't any?

Thanks for the suggestion, Steve
