This new BASE_TARGET_DIR variable is set in stone to point to the real location where packages will be installed. Its name is modelled after its definition: it is located in $(BASE_DIR), and it is named 'target/', hence BASE_TARGET_DIR. The already-existing TARGET_DIR variable now simply points to the same location, except that it is recursively expanded, so that we can later change it depending on the context. All locations that really need to reference the existing target/ directory, are changed to use BASE_TARGET_DIR; surprinsigly enough, they all seem to be located in the main Makefile. :-) The rest is left with using good-old TARGET_DIR.

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 Freenode IRC.
