make menuconfig tinycore-5.3
« on: June 05, 2014, 05:00:55 AM »
Hello,

I want to use
make menuconfig
in Tinycore5-3.

I've download this extensions:
make.tcz
compile.tcz
perl5.tcz
ncurses-common.tcz
ncurses-dev.tcz
ncurses.tcz
ncurses-util.tcz
ncurses.tcz
bash.tcz


But when I try
$make menuconfig

It says:
sh:menuconfig: not found

Could you help me?

You need to be in the top-most directory of the linux kernel source and you need "tce-load -i compiletc bash perl5 ncurses-dev"

I've followed your instructionis:

tc@box:/mnt/sda1/boot$tce-load -i compiletc bash perl5 ncurses-dev

It says compiletc, bash, perl5 and ncurses-dev are already installed

Then, in the same directory (boot) I've tried to run:
make menuconfig

output: make ***No rule to make target "menuconfig". Stop.

I don't have linux-3.18.13-patched.txz

This is the content of my boot directory:
core.gz
grub/
vmlinuz

I've installed tinycore in a compact flash and using it as HD

"menuconfig" is a script used to configure a linux kernel before compiling it - what are you trying to do?

Trying to see easily tinycore's kernel configuration  :). It's what I do when I want to see my kernel .config file in my desktop.

Why don't you simply open the config file in a text editor ? To read the configuration
