Hi,

 

I am new to armbian, and I was trying to compile the vanilla kernel for the Banana Pi M2. 

 

I get the following error:

I thought I missed some instruction, and restarted the whole process, I still similar error

The host machine is a Ubuntu 14.04 amd64 with kernel version 3.19.0-41-generic

 

What am I doing wrong here?

 

OK, this was because I wasn't using the master branch of igor's lib and the branch I was on wasn't picking the latest stable release correctly. 
 

It's all working now.
