Thanks for your help. I think I am close to running uClinux on my development board successfully. I am no longer having any trouble, which I am aware of doing the buildroot. However, when I try to run uClinux on my development board I see this output.
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.

Any thoughts on what may be wrong? Is my problem probably with busybox or is it something wrong with my kernel?
I just went back and tried to redo "make" for my buildroot, and I recieved this error.
# These are in /lib, so...
rm -rf /home/user/buildroot/build_nios2/root/usr/lib/libgcc_s*.so*
cp -a /home/user/buildroot/build_nios2/staging_dir/nios2-linux-uclibc/lib/libgcc_s* /home/user/buildroot/build_nios2/root/lib/
cp: cannot stat `/home/user/buildroot/build_nios2/staging_dir/nios2-linux-uclibc/lib/libgcc_s*': No such file or directory
make: [/home/user/buildroot/build_nios2/root/lib/libgcc_s.so.1] Error 1 (ignored)
touch -c /home/user/buildroot/build_nios2/root/lib/libgcc_s.so.1
touch -c /home/user/buildroot/build_nios2/root/usr/bin/ldd
I check and /home/user/buildroot/build_nios2/root/lib is an empty folder. From the error message, I would expect that there is suppose to be atleast one file in this folder.
