It's the first time I've looked into a makefile, but I think
now I know how a makefile works.
Could it be that I only have to modify:
CCOPT
= -V2.7.2.3 -O2 -m486 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -DCONFIG_SCC_STANDALONE
and then say:
make clean
make dep
make utils
make install
I'm sorry to ask so much, but normally you've to take a howto,
do what it says -> and it works.
But I've learned that ham things never do that way a howto
tells you.
