[Buildroot] Problem making buildroot

[Lionel Landwerlin]

The customized buildroot version you're pointing out is more than a year
old. I don't think you're going to find a lot of support here.

You better try to shake up gumstix ;)

Otherwise you can find the official stable version here :

http://buildroot.uclibc.org/download.html

or the development version on git :

http://buildroot.uclibc.org/git.html
