On most distros, the tar format defaults to GNU. However, at build time the default format may be changed to posix. Also, future versions of tar will default to posix. Since we want the tarballs created by the git download method to be reproducible (so their hash can be checked), we should explicitly specify the format. Since existing tarballs on sources.buildroot.org use the GNU format, and also the existing hashes in the *.hash files are based on GNU format tarballs, we use the GNU format. In addition, the Posix format encodes atime and ctime as well as mtime, but tar offers no option like --mtime to override them. In the GNU format, atime and ctime are only encoded if the --incremental option is given.

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. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
