Hey guys,

I'm having a little trouble building a custom firmware image.

I'm trying to get asterisk working on a WRT54G v. 4.0. OpenWRT installed no problem; however, when I tried to install asterisk it ran out of space. So I've decided to make a custom firmware, so that I can remove some packages I don't need, and also get asterisk on the squashfs. Anyway, I've made a package list and all that stuff, but when I do make clean, and then make install... nothing happens:

$ make clean
$ make

I've also tried make build, but that didn't work either:

[...]
make -C  install KERNEL="" FS="jffs2-4MB"
make: Entering an unknown directory
make: *** install: No such file or directory.  Stop.
make: Leaving an unknown directory
make[1]: *** [jffs2-install] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/nick/OpenWrt-ImageBuilder-Linux-i686/image'
make: *** [build] Error 2

What am I missing here?

I see that several people have taken a look at this message, with no replies... do I need to provide more information?

The docs detail the build process

You should just be able to unzip the WR RC3 archive, then

make menuconfig

make

The discussion might have continued from here.
