Hi!

After a zillion tries i managed to build a cerowrt image for myself.
It's not really clear what happened when it fails, but sometimes 
building a package again does the trick.
Here is another question to understand  better:

When building a package (eg. selecting a new one in menuconfig) does the 
buildsystem take care of
dependencies in other "parts" of the system? Let's say i do a package 
which requires something new
must be build in the linux kernel, but in the build before the kernel is 
already succesfully compiled. Will the
buildsystem automatically detect that it is neccessary to build the 
kernel again, or do i have to do it
manually, eg. do a "make clean"? My guess is that i have to do it manually.

Thanks, for clearing things up

Oliver
