Juergen, Thought I'd go with the second method.
Just to confirm: mkdir -p patches/nancom-1.0 for me is in $(PTXDIST_WORKSPACE)/patches/<package> (= BSP) /usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2011.12.0 and because it is owned by root sudo was required. However, I don't understand what this step is doing: echo dummy.patch patches/nanocom-1.0/series It is echoed to the screen, but there is no file called <series> in nanocom-1.0 Continuing with the quilt sequence and finishing with <quilt refresh> I now have a patches folder in my /build-target folder, which I don't think is correct. Doing ptxdist drop nanocom compile and ptxdist go gives the following errors: **************** No suitable file '/bin/nanocom' could be found in any of these locations: /home/davef/Pengutronix12/platform-mini2440/build-target/ nanocom-1.0/nanocom.mini2440 /home/davef/Pengutronix12/platform-mini2440/build-target/ nanocom-1.0/nanocom install file: src=Pengutronix12/platform-mini2440/build-target/nanocom-1.0/nanocom dst=/bin/nanocom owner=0 group=0 permissions=0755 Error: file not found: /home/davef/Pengutronix12/platform-mini2440/ build-target/nanocom-1.0/nanocom Error: install_file failed! failed make: *** [/home/davef/Pengutronix12/platform-mini2440/state/nanocom.targetinstall] Error 1 ***************** In your first response were you suggesting that this patch could also go in configs/platform-friendlyarm-mini2440/patches (priority b)? Maybe, that is the best place for me as I don't have to do all this sudo stuff. Cheers, Dave
