    Please give your make messages.

    The uClinux-dist patches were updated to 20060803. Boa and Cgi-generic are included with default config.

    `/home/jwlam/uClinux-dist-test/vendors/Altera/nios2nommu&#39;

    if are there a inittab files in the above directory?

    the command "romfs-inst.sh /etc/inittab" will copy inittab to <romfs>/etc/inittab

    So you need confirm if the file /home/jwlam/uClinux-dist-test/vendors/Altera/nios2nommu/inittab exsist.
