Hi,

I'm trying to understand how does Makefiles work in OpenWRT.
For example how commands like:

  make package/madwifi/compile

does work?
I mean - how make knows what to do in "package/madwifi/compile" .

Any explanation?

this is what I get when I excute the cross-compiling toolchaine:

+ cd /home/amir/Bureau/openwrt/staging_dir/toolchain-mipsel_r2_gcc-linaro_uClibc-0.9.32
+ mkdir -p stamp lib usr/include usr/lib
