Compiling MTD-utils

[Andrew Douglas]

Hi All

I'm tring to compile the latest snapshot of MTD utils for my host and
embedded target systems. According to Karim Yaghmour's Building
Embedded Linux Systems I should use:

$ automake --foreign; autoconf
$ ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux

When I do I get the folowing error messages:

"automake: 'configure.ac ' or 'configure.in' is required
"autoconf: no input file"

Are these the correct commands? If not what should I be using??

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks
