Quick patch to avoid deleting my directory of RPM Sources. I tend to use buildroot as "make DL_DIR=/.rh/SOURCES", with the rpm topdir set to $HOME/.rh in my .rpmmacros -- allows me to build RPMs as non-root, and share the source with buildroot. Problem is, buildroot likes to delete my directory :(
To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:
1) run 'make'
2) select the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) Use your shiny new root filesystem. Depending on which sortof
root filesystem you selected, you may want to loop mount it,
chroot into it, nfs mount it on your target device, burn it
to flash, or whatever is appropriate for your target system.
You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun!
