ERROR ===== You are missing your .config, which is needed for the makefile system. How can I make the config? First lets get the submodules using git: git submodule update --init --recursive Then generate the config using our state of the art menuconfig: make menuconfig Dont worry, the makefile is smart and knows you want to do this to generate the config. So I wont tell you again, unless you dont do what I say!
