Are you using snapgear-modules-20051115.sh?  This shar
file (available from www.snapgear.org) has a README in
it that gives step-by-step instructions.  I integrated
the IAL with uClinux-dist-20060803 using
snapgear-modules-20051115.sh on ADI/Coyote.  The same
steps should work for MonteJade.  After performing all
the steps in the README you'll need to apply the
attached patch in order to compile.

1. cd <path-to>/uClinux-dist
2. patch -p1 < ial-uClinux-dist-20060803.patch

Regards,
...doug
