Missing build folder gives MAKE error.

Hi all,

Been working with the Beagle-board for a few weeks now and I have had
a bit of good luck until today.

I have built a Angstrom console image, I am trying to use MAKE but I
am getting an error that says that a file is missing from /lib/modules/
2.6.29-omap1/build/. My file system does not have the BUILD folder. Do
I need to install additional packages. I think I have installed those
necessary.

Preparing to compile for kernel version 2.6.29
File not found: /lib/modules/2.6.29-omap1/build/.config at ./scripts/
make_kconfig.pl line 32, <IN> line 4.
make[1]: *** No ule to make tare `.myconfig', needed by `config-
compat.h'. Stop

Any help would be great,

Thanks

Ok, update. A little further investigation i found that the /lib/
modules/build folder is a symlink to /usr/src. However there is
nothing contained within this folder. I thought I had installed the
kernel source with opkg install kernel-dev. I have also tried task-
native-sdk as punt.

I do not think that anyone expected people to build kernel modules on
embedded devices, so the kernel headers are not packaged.

Can you copy them over manually?
