Firmware error in kernel compilation

I have created a custom kernel 4.1.5(latest) on the **odroid xu3** device as mentioned in Arm DS5 streamline configuration, Odroid has kernel 3.1.82-35 already,

after make menu config during make

it gives a firmware error, i.e:-

make[1]: No rule to make target firmware/edid/1024x768.bin', needed byfirmware/edid/1024x768.bin.gen.o'. Stop. make: [firmware] Error 2"

Can anyone tell me what should i do, I am new to this.

Solution

  • The firmware is missing. You should check whether this firmware is needed or not. If it is necessary, download it and place it in the proper place. Otherwise, you can delete the rules in the Makefile.
