And with recent changes made by Ulf, we have only to regenerate our .config buildroot config and to select Kernel -> "none". And I have buildroot build OK again. The only thing that Ulf forget to warn people that if they have old buildroot .config they must regenerate it and select kernel .config or kernel none , otherwise you will get that error messages when doing cp.
