Re: [microblaze-uclinux] Non-standard PetaLinux Installations

Hello John,

this surprises me. I build my hardware on a Windows machine. Next I copy the 
complete project directory into the Petalinux\hardware structure. Next I 
perform a "petalinux-copy-autoconfig" and I start the build. This is 
unsuccesful due to options with invalid value.

I have checked this scriptfile, I see only a straight copy:

     function copy_autoconfig_file {
    # Make a backup copy, just in case
            mv ${KERNEL_PLATFORM_PATH}/${AUTOCONFIG} 
${KERNEL_PLATFORM_PATH}/${AUTOCONFIG}.old > /dev/null 2>&1

            # Copy into kernel platform path
            cp ${AUTOCONFIG_FILE} ${KERNEL_PLATFORM_PATH}/${AUTOCONFIG} || 
(print_stderr "ERROR: Unable to copy ${AUTOCONFIG}" && exit -1);
    }


Best regards, Cor
