[Gumstix-users] Buildroot Compile Error

[Fred W. <fre...@gm...>]

Hello all,
I am using the gumstix to develop a uav platform that can take
pictures (it seems to be a recurring project idea in the mailing lists
:) ). I am trying to get started by compiling the buildroot. I am
using the latest version of Open SUSE. I followed the directions on
the tutorial entry on the Gumstix wiki
(http://docwiki.gumstix.org/Tutorial) and once I got to the fourth
step, make, I had the following:

if [ -f "target/generic/skel.tar.gz" ] ; then \
                zcat target/generic/skel.tar.gz | tar -C
/root/gumstix-buildroot5/build_arm_nofpu -xf -; \
        fi;
if [ -d "target/generic/target_skeleton" ] ; then \
                cp -a target/generic/target_skeleton/*
/root/gumstix-buildroot5/build_arm_nofpu/root/; \
        fi;
touch /root/gumstix-buildroot5/build_arm_nofpu/staging_dir/fakeroot.env
find /root/gumstix-buildroot5/build_arm_nofpu/root -type d -name CVS |
xargs rm -rf
find /root/gumstix-buildroot5/build_arm_nofpu/root -type d -name .svn
| xargs rm -rf

Also, I'm relatively new to Linux /  Unix style environments, as well
as svn, so if anyone has any good resource pages for that, I'd
appreciate it (how to, for example, remove the first 4 copies of the
svn I have down).

Thank you for any help!

Fred
