Hi,

I am building it with:
make uImage
make modules

At least bitbake in Yocto and Openembedded is.

Running make on it's own is the equivalent of:
make vmlinux modules

which builds the samples directory, however if you run:
make vmlinux
make modules

Then the Samples are not built, that is what I am trying to fix.

Thank you,
Jim
