John, I tried the update command. The missing directories and files were still not downloaded. Is it possible that they were removed from the CVS server?

Yes, you need everything. in the uClinux-dist and uClinux-2.4.x directories, just do an update command "cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cv.suclinux.org:/var/cvs update" It should pull down all the other stuff that was missing, without repeating stuff you already have. In my setup here I have a cron job that updates a pristine tree every night from CVS, then I just make copies and working sets from that, during the day. That way I can always get a fresh copy in a couple of minutes, by using rsync to duplicate the pristine copy into a working directory. Might be useful to consider. Rgds, John >
