I am working on my first embedded linux project (and second ever embedded project). I have an existing computer that is running Linux 2.6.24 and BusyBox. It has an arm processor. I want to add uClibc and cross-compile a c program for that box. It seems buildroot is exactly what I need. However, I seem to be having some difficulty getting it up and running.<br><br>I unpacked it, did a "make menuconfig" and configured to the best of my ability, though I admit I didn't understand everything there. Then I did "make". The operation ended with the following results:<br>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>config.status: creating po/Makefile.in<br>config.status: executing depfiles

However, I'm not 100% sure what sort of results the make process was supposed to produce, so I am not sure. Many empty directories were created, which seems strange, and leads me to believe the make process never completed.<br><br>Does anybody know what might be going wrong? I would appreciate any help.<br><br>Thank you,<br><br>Dave<br><br>(By the way, this is my first mailing list, so I am not certain how this works.)<br></div></div></body></html>
