Strange make linux image with dist-20060803

Hi all,

With the uClinux-dist-20060803 release and patch V17:

The "make linux image" has a strange behaviour:

(Just after after a

make clean

make vendor_hwselect SYSPTF=~/...

make

make romfs)

When I "make linux image" first time I get a non working image of about 500kB.

Just after I launch a second time "make linux image" and I get a working image of about 1MB.

What's the problem ?

Thanks,

LeFred.

    The first make didn't include the final romfs for initramfs.

    The second make did.

    You'd follow the wiki's make steps.

    you have to do "make romfs" before the first make.

    it will create some dirs and files in romfs dir, so that initramfs script will work correctly afterward.

    make clean

    make vendor_hwselect SYSPTF=~/...

    make romfs <----

    make

    make linux image
