[Buildroot] Kernel not configuring [PowerPC 603e]

[Andrea Provasi]

Hi all,
   I am trying to build a rootfs and a kernel with buildroot for a Lite5200
evaluation board from Freescale. The board has an MPC5200B powerpc (it's a
603e core)

I made buildroot menuconfig changing the config to "Advanced Configuration",
vmlinux binary image in uImage, and rootfs type ext2 gzip compressed. All
the rest is as per defconfig (I think)

All build goes fine through toolchain and uClib.

 When it is time to configure the kernel I get the following error:

==========================================================
You should create a .config for your kernel
and install it as /-linux-2.6.21.config

cp -dpf /-linux-2.6.21.config/opt/buildroot/project_build_powerpc/uclibc/linux-
2.6.21/.config
cp: impossibile fare stat di `/-linux-2.6.21.config': No such file or
directory
make: *** [/opt/buildroot/project_build_powerpc/uclibc/linux-2.6.21/.configured]
Error 1
===========================================================

this is quite expceted being the .config origin name wrong? (I may ask :-))

Looking into
the Makefile.in.advanced in the kernel package subtree,
/opt/buildroot/target/linux
seem that the calling make process is failing to export the variables:

BR2_BOARD_PATH and BR2_BOARD_NAME

I actuallyam NOT very keen in browsing the makefiles...I can't tell if it's
ME that I'm missing something or is anywhere anything I should set in the
menuconfig to define the two envvars?

Many thanks in advance for any help

Regads
Andy
