John,

I used this command to download scource from CVS server as your website
suggested.

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.uclinux.org:/var/cvs co uClinux-dist

Then I compared what I had on my computer with CVS website
(http://cvs.uclinux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/uClinux-2.4.x/). Some directorires
seem to be missing. 

Do I need to download all the missing files? And how?

Here are the files on in my uClinux-dist directory:

[uClinux-dist]$ ls -al

Here is what they have at
http://cvs.uclinux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/uClinux-2.4.x/
  

Compare this directory with your uClinux-dist/linux-2.4.x, not uClinux-dist

Hi, I am pretty new to embedded linux. After obtained the source, I
    

tried to configure a uClinux kernal by useing "make menuconfig" command.
But I got something like this:
  

$ make menuconfig
config/mkconfig > config.in
find: vendors: No such file or directory
find: vendors: No such file or directory
ERROR: you have no libc available in this directory.
make: *** [config.in] Error 1
$

Is it because I forget to set the PATH right or I missed something?
    

It looks like you are working with just the kernel, not the uClinux-dist.

You need uClinux-dist and uClinux-2.4.x - create a synbolic link called 
linux-2.4.x from within uClinux-dist, to the uClinux-2.4.x directory. 
Then, run "make menuconfig" from within uClinux-dist.

Regards,

John
