Correct. At the time the stuff in arch/ppc/boot differed vastly between the PPC trees and kernel.org. But since they're synced up again now, it's time to tackle arch/ppc/boot :) > The arch/ppc/Makefile.in has a "link_subdirs(kernel mm math-emu)" statement. > The build directory (arch/ppc) has the following directories: 8260_io, > kernel, mm, lib, math-emu. > How does the 8260_io and lib directory get built ? I _think_ I test-built an 8260 kernel but I'm not sure. > How can I get the wrapper to build. kbuild-2.4 used the make zImage in > arch/ppc/mbxboot/Makfile for kernel-2.4.0.

It's arch/ppc/boot/simple in 2.4.19-preX, and that's the 'correct' stuff. > If I configured for pmac, how does the build system know to delve into > the arch/ppc/boot/pmac directory ? Well, w/ kbuild-2.4 arch/ppc/boot/Makefile controls all of that with SUBDIR-$(...) statements. -- Tom Rini (TR1265) http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/ _______________________________________________ kbuild-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kbuild-devel
