When I do the following: $ make uImage CHK include/linux/version.h make[1]: `arch/ppc/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date. CHK include/linux/compile.h CHK usr/initramfs_list UIMAGE arch/ppc/boot/images/uImage Image Name: Linux-2.6.12-rc3 Created: Fri May 6 10:19:28 2005 Image Type: PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 993322 Bytes = 970.04 kB = 0.95 MB Load Address: 0x00000000 Entry Point: 0x00000000 Image: arch/ppc/boot/images/uImage not made The issue is that the file arch/ppc/boot/images/uImage does exit (the 'not made' is not correct). $(obj)/uImage: $(obj)/vmlinux.gz $(Q)rm -f $@ $(call if_changed,uimage) @echo ' Image: $@' $(if $(wildcard $@),'is ready','not made') It seems the $(wildcard $@) expands at the start of the rule. Any ideas? - kumar
