How can I build an image with openembedded for my palm tx?
I'm trying to build a minimal image form my palm tx, so that I'll be able to add my programs to it in the future. The build simply does not work. How do you do?
Here's my error:

I've been getting that for a while. Since I haven't had the time to figure out what's causing it, I've resorted to manually compiling it in the working directory, and then fudging the build stamps. If someone could fix and/or explain this, that would help a lot.

I'm currently working with this .bb file for kernel. Something is wrong in original one, but it worked for me once. I'm not sure, whats wrong, but git fetcher seems to fetch some weird directory from our git.

I have the same problem. If you see the contents of /home/../linux-hackndev-2.6-2.6.21-hnd3-r14/trunk, there isn't Makefile; without Makefile, there aren't rules.
Some similar is discussed here http://hackndev.com/node/96
