My directory structure is as follows :

/home/mike/rtems-4.5.0-beta2/  contains the following subdirectories :


archive
install
tools



/home/mike/rtems-4.5.0-beta2/tools  contains the following files and
directories :

binutils-2.9.5.0.24
bit
bit_gdb
bit_rtems
build-i386-rtems
common.sh
gcc-2.95.2
gdb-4.18
newlib-1.8.2
rtems-4.5.0-beta2
user.cfg


the build-i386-rtems directory is generated by the "bit_rtems i386
pc386" command.

OK,  I've re-examined the bit_rtems script and it does indeed include
the user.cfg file (this is where the name build-i386-rtems comes from of
course)
