Hello Daiane,

thank you for you answer! 

to your question: When you say nothing, what do you mean? No error, no warning, no log at all?

Yes there is nothing. I start the command and the terminal does not come back and nothing does happen.


I can start menuconfig  with "make menuconfig"  in the kernel code folder. But it is not configured .

Do you suggest to use stable yocto fido 1.8?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / with best regards

I remember a long time ago I faced a similar problem and it was due to remote server. It was caused somehow by ncurses. There was a variable used to configure which program to use on remote server to display the menuconfig window. But I don't remember more than that, sorry.
