Please enable only one apps at a time, to see which failed to make. 

Check the compile message. Lack of include file ? 

 

You can also try the same patches against stable release of uClinux-dist, which may have better result. I will change the buildroot guide and build script to use the stable one instead of test release.

Hi Hippo, 

 

Thanks for hint. 

I was doing same what you have instructed.  

while doing "make romfs". it is going failed.  

The required ".config" file for ~/rootfs/etc for an apps is not so clear. 

 

Acknowledge me, when you will modify the buildroot guide steps. 

 

I compiled for busybox using step 14. it got hang with vfork in  

"~/uClinux-dist-test/user/busybox/networking/inetd.c: line766" 

with following error 

*********************************************** 

/home/goutam/uClinux-dist-test/user/busybox/networking/inetd.c:766: error: too few arguments to function `vfork_daemon_rexec&#39;
