custom uClibc problems

Hi people I have followed the tutorial from microtronixs on how to build a custom uClibc library. After I have run the menuconfig I then begin the make from the toplevel makefile. It compiles for so...

Hmm... sounds like the Make process couldn't find the autoconf file that's generated during the building of a linux kernel.

Things to confirm:

- Double check the Linux Build Location option in the uClibc menuconfig. It should point to a kernel project build directory, not to the linux source tree.

- The kernel project that's specified within the uClibc menuconfig must be built at least once to generate the autoconf.h file

- After building the kernel, does an autoconf.h file exist inside the build directory? I think it should be in

<kernel_project>/build/include/linux

Hope that helps, if not let me know and I&#39;ll dig a bit deeper.
