Currently, the rule to rebuild the Linux kernel with an initramfs directly depends on the path of the file of the intermediate cpio image. This is inherently "bad" from a purity point of view; linux.mk should not have to delve into the fs internals. Rather, make it directly depend on the "frontal" rule that generates the cpio image. Drop the comment for linux-rebuild-with-initramfs, it was misleading (talking about generating "the initramfs list of files", which is not what was done, since we use a cpio as source of initramfs, not a list of files).

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.
