[U-Boot] Quick guide to Kconfig

[Frank Ihle]

Hi Masahiro,

thanks! it's running nicely. I see you're running the GUI with lxdialog, and it's nice to see that more and more build systems come together to one "base", which makes it much easier for further developing. 

I've just started using it on our project too, but the integration is a pretty tenacious job, as you might know. I would much appreciate it, if you could share any information like tutorials or documentation for a better adaptation of the lxdialog, if that's alright. Because, if we are using U-Boots menuconfig, then we'd like to add extra rows with information on our own.

Kind Regards 

Frank

When entering the /u-boot-2014.07/ directory and hitting "make menuconfig" then, it just tells me that there's no rule to make menuconfig - and so I can't run the configuration tool. Am I in the wrong directory or is it the wrong version?
