BTW: also be aware of ELDK_FIXOWER and ELDK_MAKEDEV.b

The kernel is used just for build Xenomai kernel modules. For
cross-compilation you must provide "KSRC=<path-to-your-kernel>. But it's
*not* used for building user-space apps.

Looks good now. The path is pointing to the Xenomai installation dir:
/opt/eldk-4.2/ppc_4xx/usr/xenomai/

Hm, in a previous mail I asked if the installed Xenomai programs from
the test suite like "latency" or "cyclictest" do work. Is that the case?
If not, it's most likely not a build problem.

It's up to you to define the rootfs and install the Xenomai programs into:

  $ export DESTDIR=/usr/src/initramfs
  $ cd xenomai-2.5.6
  $ make install

That's likely to much data. The following should work as well:

  $ make install-exec
