Thanks. Yes, I've read all those documents. Trouble is I don't retain much of
what I read until I use it. Which is why I'm doing it now.

Anyway, your suggestion (in a different email) of

       make update-makefile ; rm -rf openmoko ; make setup update

worked. I've made it past that point.

Thanks again for the makefile and the assistance.

Michael
