I have modified output/build/at91bootstrap-1.16, and now I would like to
save the patch set and have it applied when I rebuild at91bootstrap-1.16
from scratch.
To my buildroot .conf file, I added:
BR2_TARGET_AT91BOOTSTRAP_PATCH="$(TOPDIR)/board/atmel/at91sam9g20ek/at91bootstrap-patch"
but it is erased from .config after running make.
My patch is named at91bootstrap-1.16-my_stuff.patch
The patch is not being applied.
Am I doing something wrong?

I should have mentioned I am stuck on buildroot-2011.11.
If there is a fix, can I back port into this version?

Never edit your .config file manually. There is no way it can work
properly, unless you know precisely what you're doing.
The reason why a BR2_TARGET_AT91BOOTSTRAP_PATCH line gets removed is
because this option simply doesn't exist.
Simply go in:
Bootloaders
-> at91bootstrap
-> custom patch dir
And set your patch directory here.
Best regards,
Thomas

There in lines the problem.
I do not have:
Bootloaders
-> at91bootstrap
-> custom patch dir
My buildroot 2011.11 has:
Bootloaders --->
[*] AT91 Bootstrap
(at91sam9g20ek) Bootstrap board
Boot Memory (NAND Flash) --->
[ ] AT91 DataFlashBoot
Is is possible to back-port the ability to patch at91bootstrap in
2011.11?
What release added it?

Aaah, ok, it has been added after the Buildroot version you're
currently using.

Yes, it should not be very complicated. The commit is
502465e435610b54b247b44cf61e7f0ba3d05a22.
> What release added it?
The commit was made on February, 2nd this year, so I suspect it was
part of 2012.02.
Best regards,
Thomas
