[Ipodlinux-devel] Busybox Compilation

[Royce A. <esa...@ho...>]

Greetings,

I've been playing around with an initrd for the ipodlinux kernel (and 
submitted a patch for it), and needed a couple of 'modules' to be compiled 
into busybox.  So I downloaded the source and started playing around with 
it, but I'm having trouble.  I am trying to compile losetup and pivot_root 
into busybox, thus allowing linux to run inside a loopback file on the FAT 
partition - avoiding the need to partition the ipod to install linux.  The 
busybox binary included in the userland files for ipodlinux don't seem to 
have losetup included.

When compiling, I am getting an error stating that some modules can't find 
"config/automake.h".  I have automake installed, but none of the header 
files are ever under a directory named 'config'.  Am I just stupid?

Thanks,
