[Buildroot] Error Building Linux - Board Support Options: at91sam9260ek, at91sam9260dfc, etc

[Kent]

Hello,

I'm trying to set up Linux-2.6.21.5 to boot off of the NAND Flash on an
at91sam9260ek. I chose the board support options of:

[*] Atmel Device Support  --->
	[*] Board support for the Atmel AT91 range of microprocessors
	  AT91 device (AT91SAM9260 Microprocessor)  --->
	  Development Board support (Atmel AT91SAM9260EK)  --->
	[*] Remove work in progress
	.
	.
	.
	[*] Build AT91 Bootstrap for selected chip
		Boot Memory (NAND Flash)

The console log looks like:

.
.
.
You should create a .config for your kernel
and install it as
target/device/Atmel/at91sam9260ek/at91sam9260ek-limux-.config

cp -dpf target/device/Atmel/at91sam9260ek-linux-.config
....../buildroot/build_arm/linux-2.6.21.5/.config
cp: cannot stat 'target/device/Atmel/at91sam9260ek-linux-.config': No such
file or directory
make: *** [....../buildroot/build_arm/linux-2.6.21.5/.configured] Error 1

I've checked the contents of 'target/device/Atmel/ and I don't find an
at91sam9260ek directory. There are only ...9260dfc, ...9261ek, and ...9263ek
directories and they all have linux-2.6.21.5.config files in them.

I'm really just trying to figure out how everything works so I tried
changing over to the Dataflash options (dfc) to see if since their directory
is there they might work a little better. I get the same log as above just
with all the ek's changed to dfc's. I think the "linux-.config" is supposed
to have the kernel version after the dash. Maybe that's all it is?

I'd appreciate any help anyone can give.

Thanks a lot,
Kent

Hello again,

> target/device/Atmel/at91sam9260ek/at91sam9260ek-limux-.config

We did a little digging and discovered that the LINUX26_KCONFIG variable
didn't seem to be setting correctly (target/device/Atmel/Makefile.in). We
changed  the := to just = and that seemed to help. I have no idea what the
long-term implications of this change are, but thought I'd mention that it
worked at least.

Still no solution on this though. Don't know if there NEEDS to be an 'ek'
directory or not, but it's looking for one.

Thanks,
Kent
