Build problems

Hi All

I'm not sure if this is the best list; please indicate which if not so.

I'm struggling to build openmoko.  Tried both 2007.1 and 2007.2 using
OpenmokoMakefile.  It seems to build to the point where it is creating
the rootfs; then dies :

NOTE: package openmoko-devel-image-1.0: started

make: *** [openmoko-devel-image] Error 1

If I edit device_table-minimal.txt to make tinylogin a c (character
device) instead of f (file), it fails on the next file (mount).  Seems
make rootfs can not make files; only devices ?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
