Hi Laczen, Good question, normally we use CustomBoards (AKA: out-tree or out-of-the-tree boards) to have a separated board from mainline:
https://nuttx.apache.org/docs/latest/guides/customboards.html But I think your case is different, you only want to use your defconfig separated from mainline, correct? In this case just use a symbolic link will work, enter inside boards/yourarch/yourfamily/yourboard/configs/ and create a symbolic link to the external directory where you board profile with defconfig is located: Example: $ cd boards/arm/stm32/stm32f4discovery/configs/ $ ln -s /home/user/boardconfigs/mynsh mynsh $ cd - $ ./tools/configure.sh stm32f4discovery:mynsh $ make -j BR, Alan On Thu, Dec 19, 2024 at 6:46 AM Laczen JMS <laczen...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Alan and Aaron, > > I am also a noob and facing what I think is a similar problem.
