While not very common, it is nice when package re-installation works. Unfortunately the "installlinks" target of vim installs links with "ln -s", causing a package reinstallation to fail with: cd /home/thomas/buildroot/br/output-all/target/usr/bin; ln -s vim ex cd /home/thomas/buildroot/br/output-all/target/usr/bin; ln -s vim view cd /home/thomas/buildroot/br/output-all/target/usr/bin; ln -s vim rvim cd /home/thomas/buildroot/br/output-all/target/usr/bin; ln -s vim rview cd /home/thomas/buildroot/br/output-all/target/usr/bin; ln -s vim vimdiff ln: failed to create symbolic link 'ex': File exists ln: failed to create symbolic link 'view': File exists make[2]: *** [Makefile:2749: /home/thomas/buildroot/br/output-all/target/usr/bin/ex] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[2]: *** [Makefile:2752: /home/thomas/buildroot/br/output-all/target/usr/bin/view] Error 1 ln: failed to create symbolic link 'rvim': File exists ln: failed to create symbolic link 'rview': File exists To fix this, we remove the target links before proceeding with the installation.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
