Hi,

I am trying to configure NuttX with an external board, following your
advice, but I just can't make it work...

My current workspace structure is the following:
├── apps
├── boards
├── Makefile
└── nuttx

I copied the directory ${TOPDIR}/nuttx/boards/arm/stm32/stm32f4discovery
into ${TOPDIR}/boards/stm32f4discovery, to use it as an example.

Then I tried:
        cd nuttx
        ./tools/configure.sh ../boards/stm32f4discovery:nsh
But it fails with:
        Directory for ../boards/stm32f4discovery:nsh does not exist.
Options are: ...

I then tried:
        cd nuttx
        ./tools/configure.sh ../boards/stm32f4discovery/configs/nsh
But again:
        File Make.defs could not be found

I started looking into the code of configure.sh script.
As I see, when it detects that an external board configuration is to be
used, it does:
        configpath=${TOPDIR}/${boardconfig}
and generally it uses the dir ${TOPDIR}/${boardconfig}, assuming that every
needed file will be in this specific directory.

In other words, it looks like it expects a different structure for
externally defined boards, than the provided ones. Correct?
