In building qtmoko Makefiles r generated with : qbuild -from-make $(MAKE) like in: install: @echo make: running qbuild image @/home/chomwitt/programming/QT4/radekp-qtmoko-build/sdk/bin/qbuild - from-make $(MAKE) image I searched but cant find documentation of the -from-make options. What it does and where $(MAKE) gets it's value from. Alexandros
