Thomas Petazzoni 0dd232e9c7 Makefile: directories are not PHONY targets
The global .PHONY specification in the main Makefile is describing a
number of directory targets as being PHONY, which doesn't make much
sense. PHONY targets are targets that do not exist on the filesystem,
and which make should always consider as not being up-to-date, so that
the commands associated to these targets are always executed by make
when the command is invoked, even if a file with the same name exists
on the filesystem.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
