Hi,
I'm using buildroot-2009.11 and would like to have informations about
target_skeleton directory. In the documentation it's said that I can
customize my filesystem using |target/generic/target_skeleton/ |and just
type "make" to have all my files copied into output/target, and the
.tar.bz2 image file. But I made some tests, and it appears that files
put in the /root directory (of target_skeleton) are only copied if I
'make distclean' before|.|
Is it a bug ? A documentation problem ?
Best Regards||

The target_skeleton directory is copied at the beginning of the
Buildroot build process to output/target/. If this copy has been done,
it is not done again unless you clean up everything. So the behaviour
you're having (need to clean up everything to get the skeleton copied
to the target directory) is expected.
You can try to remove output/build/.root and run make, it should
trigger the copy of the skeleton to the target directory. However, this
is untested, so there may be issues with this.
Sincerely,
Thomas
