I think gdbtarget should have a depend on ncurses but I am not sure if it should go in the config or in the .mk. It may be nice to split out the server and client. uclibc.mk was checking BR2_SOFT_FLOAT for true not y.		2004-10-10 01:12:46 +00:00

README

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make'
2) select which packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) Use your shiney new root filesystem.  Depending on which sortof
    root filesystem you selecter, you may want to loop mount it,
    chroot into it, loop mount it and then nfs mount that on your
    target device, burn it to flash, or whatever is appropriate
    for your target system.

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!
