Hi,
I cannot have deploy/linuxbios.rom
but got initrd and bzImage there.
Where did I do wrong ?
Thanks,
supat
==================================
mkdir -p objdir/man/man8
sed \

main/mkelfImage.man > objdir/man/man8/mkelfImage.8
cp main/mkelfImage.man objdir/man/man8/mkelfImage.8

====================================
HOWTO
To run the system, type 'make'. You'll need a connection to the net to
suck down tarballs for the individual packages.
Currently - the system will build the following packages (in order):
uclibc
busybox
wireless-tools
kernel
mkelfImage
The end result is a .elf file in the deploy/ directory, suitable for
adding
as the payload of a LinuxBIOS build.
=============================================
