Hey Arturo,

In case this reply is not too late to be useful..

I find makeimage.sh to be pretty scary in
general, and that it's hard to know which
warnings and errors can safely be ignored
and which cannot.

In particular, I've also seen this error:

and that's one that should not be there, I think.

In my case it meant that something had screwed
up during my prior 'make' attempt(s), and I was now
trying to makeimage.sh on an incomplete and/or
busted root filesystem.

In my case the path to the solution was to go back
and recheck and redo the previous steps, in
particular the 'make', trying to ensure that
everything seemed to go okay there -- such as not
ending with output  mentioning 'Error's or lines
beginning with '***' and stuff like that.

Getting a 'cleaner start' with:

rm -rf build_i586
rm -rf toolchain_build_i586

on occasion also helped, particularly once I
started changing .config for one thing or another.

In the astlinux tree at the moment, in my experience
astmanproxy (recently discussed on this list) and
chan_sccp are two of the things that particularly like
to blow up and fail to build successfully, each for
their own particular reasons.

But there's a million variations and it all seems
like a pretty rapidly moving target, so it's hard
to be more specific...
