error with config the kernel

hi:

today,I build tools, kernel on Linux according to the manual on http://hungryhippo.jot.com/wikihome，but (http://hungryhippo.jot.com/wikihome，but) with some problems，please help me,my step：

1、tar jxf nios2gcc.tar.bz2 -C /

2、tar jxf nios2libs.tar.bz2 -C /

3、tar jxf nios2rootfs.tar.bz2

4、PATH=$PATH：/opt/nios2/bin

try out：nios2-linux-uclibc-gcc -v

It's no problem.

5、tar jxf uClinux-dist-test-20060511.tar.bz2

6、cd uClinux-dist-test

zcat uClinux-dist.diff.gz | patch -p0

7、cd ~/linux-2.6.x

make ARCH=nios2nommu CROSS_COMPILE=nios2-linux-uclibc- hwselect SYSPTF=your_system.ptf

8、make ARCH=nios2nommu CROSS_COMPILE=nios2-linux-uclibc- menuconfig

at this moment,appear the error ：

arch/nios2nommu/kconfig: 239: can't open file "mm/kconfig"

when execut "make menuconfig"，it's ok! But there is no "jtag uart" in "Device drivers-->charcter devices-->serial drivers-->"。

And there are so many errors when compie the kernel.

I'm so puzzling! it's driving me crazy!

How can I solve it? Thanks a lot.

    step7 is wrong, don't cd ~/linux-2.6.x .

    The uClinux-dist build procedure is a little different from the buildroot guide.

    cd ~/uClinux-dist-test

    make menuconfig

    Kernel/Library/Defaults Selection --->

    (linux-2.6.x) Kernel Version

    (None) Libc Version

    [ ] Default all settings (lose changes)

    [*] Customize Kernel Settings

    [*] Customize Vendor/User Settings

    [ ] Update Default Vendor Settings

    Then <exit> <exit> <yes> .

    It will enter kernel config and apps config.

    The hungryhippo.jot.com is obsolete.

    Please use the new nios wiki, http://nioswiki.jot.com/wikihome/operating...nux/uclinuxdist (http://nioswiki.jot.com/wikihome/operatingsystems/%c2%b5clinux/uclinuxdist)

    Please remove old uClinux-dist-test dir, then untar and patch again.

    The dir name is uClinux-dist-test, but not uClinux-dist.

    Try "echo $PATH" and "nios2-linux-uclibc-gcc -v" again.

    Did you add the PATH into file ~/.bash_profile ? (if you use bash)

    Sorry,I can&#39;t find the file ~/.bash_profile.

    I try out "nios2-linux-uclibc-gcc -v" after i did "PATH=$PATH:/opt/nios2/bin", it&#39;s ok.

    but restart the linux os, it&#39;s faild.

    Another question: what&#39;s mean "Then you can edit the build script, and restart from the middle"?

    Thank you !

    I update the wiki about .bash_profile, http://nioswiki.jot.com/wikihome/operating...binarytoolchain (http://nioswiki.jot.com/wikihome/operatingsystems/%c2%b5clinux/binarytoolchain)

    About edit the build script, I mean you can comment out those had done successfully, just start from where it failed.

    But I don&#39;t use the build script approach now.

    If you are new to Nios2 uClinux, I would suggest you install the binary toolchain and follow the uClinux-dist approach. http://nioswiki.jot.com/wikihome/operating...nux/uclinuxdist (http://nioswiki.jot.com/wikihome/operatingsystems/%c2%b5clinux/uclinuxdist)
