[Buildroot] [PATCH] (Re: Building kernel with buildroot fails)

[theHog]

The error was:
/home/eddy/work/buildroot-2009.02/project_build_arm/eddy/linux-2.6.26.6/.unpacked
> make: *** No rule to make target `eddy-2.6.26.6.patch'

It is caused by target/linux/Makefile.in.advanced. There is a target (line
254) that patches the kernel:
$(LINUX26_DIR)/.patched: $(LINUX26_DIR)/.unpacked $(LINUX_HEADERS_DEPENDS)

This target depends on $(LINUX_HEADERS_DEPENDS). On line 74, this variable is
initialized with the patchfile $(LINUX26_BSP_PATCH), but it omits $(DL_DIR). 

Patch attached.

Richard.
