Yes, it is important to have it in the menuconfig. After selecting the package and compiling the image. My script should be present in the given directory (/usr/bin)
I don't know the below task.
1: Where should I put my script in the buildroot
2: How to write a Makefile for the task?

I know I can do the same task via creating a directory named as files in the buildroot but I want my script as a package in the menuconfig.

please @VincentR help me.
