Description
Hi
I have the build failing with this error message:
Pseudo file "dev" exists in source filesystem "/builder/build_dir/target-arm_cortex-a9+vfpv3-d16_musl_eabi/root-mvebu/dev".
Ignoring, exclude it (-e/-ef) to override.
The target is the linksys wrt32x.
Could you please help solve this ?
Regards
