[Buildroot] Out of tree kernel sources?

[Thiago A. Corrêa]

Hi Ulrich,

     If I'm not mistaken, you are looking for O=/some/folder argument.
     I've only tried it once, so forgive me if I'm not remembering it
correctly. I'm almost sure make help will tell you. Could try it to be
sure if I wasn't on the road with such a slow notebook :(

Kind Regards,
     Thiago A. Correa
