making kernel for ppc405gp from montavista sources

Hello,

I downloaded the linux_tar.gz file from montavista and unpacked it ! I copied the .config file from the same location to the kernel tree's root. Before I did a "make mrproper".

When I run a "make dep" I got an error ! Well, I could start to check out if there is an error in the tree, but I think that there is a general mistake I made !

Does anybody know where the error comes from ? Here is the output of my "make dep":

I believe 'make mrproper' blows away .config and autoconf.h. I don't know what the state of your tree is now, but try to

copy the .config again
"make 'your favorite config process'" (mine is xconfig) keep all defaults and 'save and exit'. this will create things like autoconf.h "make dep"
"make 'your favorite image'"

Follow the directions on my web page in the section "Building the kernel:",

http://www.mvista.com/products/405gp_status/main.html

(This URL is likely to change in the next few days, I'll send out an announcement when it does.)

After getting the .config, you need to

make oldconfig
make dep
make one of the kernel targets

Please use "make menuconfig" instead of "make xconfig". The last time I checked, make xconfig generates incorrect results for the 405gp. Fixing it to work is on my to-do list.

Note that the web page points you to the May 3 kernel. There is a new kernel as of June 29, but I haven't announced it yet since I haven't updated the web page.
