I have looked through several posting on this, but still cannot find the correct answer. I am trying to make build root with a custom embedded chip tar file. In the .config file the following is set:

BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOMER_TARBALL_LOCATION="file://~/linux....tar.gz" BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION="custom"

Run 'make" and it works until the custom file is called. Then the error happens cp: cannot stat '~/linux...tar.gz': No such file or directory

New to this whole build root and embedded linux world. Thanks in advance.

No shell expansion is done on the file:// URLs, so you can't use ~ to refer to your home directory. Either put the full path there, or use ${HOME}/linux....tar.gz
