Subject: [Buildroot] Questions on buildroot device_table.txt file and how to	use it

You should change the target/device/Atmel/root/device_table.txt file.  I have uncommented the /dev/sda and /dev/sdb entries for external flash devices.  The easiest way I've found to rebuild the filesystem after changes like that is to delete the contents of binaries/project_name/*.  Then just execute make from the top level of buildroot and it will rebuild your RFS with the correct changes.

Regards, Matt.
