So I decided to fall back, read and follow the directions. But this too has failed. What I've done is: tar jxvf buildroot-2009.05.tar.bz2 cd buildroot-2009.05 make menuconfig make When I'm compiling all goes well until I hit this: : DEPMOD 2.6.29.4-test make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/njc/stuff/buildroot-2009.05/project_build_i586/LORHA/linux-2.6.29.4' + rm -f /home/njc/stuff/buildroot-2009.05/project_build_i586/LORHA/root/lib/modules/2.6.29.4/build /home/njc/stuff/buildroot-2009.05/project_build_i586/LORHA/root/lib/modules/2.6.29.4/source + /home/njc/stuff/buildroot-2009.05/build_i586/staging_dir/bin/i586-linux-depmod26 -b /home/njc/stuff/buildroot-2009.05/project_build_i586/LORHA/root 2.6.29.4 WARNING: Couldn't open directory /home/njc/stuff/buildroot-2009.05/project_build_i586/LORHA/root/lib/modules/2.6.29.4: No such file or directory FATAL: Could not open /home/njc/stuff/buildroot-2009.05/project_build_i586/LORHA/root/lib/modules/2.6.29.4/modules.dep.temp for writing: No such file or directory make: *** [/home/njc/stuff/buildroot-2009.05/project_build_i586/LORHA/root/lib/modules/2.6.29.4/modules.dep] Error 1 I'm having trouble finding where the sequence of commands are executed so I can figure out why the directory is not being created. I can go into the linux-2.6.29.4 directory and manually compile the kernel with no errors. Any pointers would be appreciated.
