Hi Flavio,

First of all, read the help pages in menuconfig:

config X_LOAD_MAKE_IFT
  bool
  prompt "generate signed ift file"
  help
    When this option is enabled, a so-called IFT file is generated. You
    need a X-Loader source tree that supports this. This must know about
    the make target 'ift' so ptxdist can do the following: "make ift".

    In details you will need the tool signGP from
    http://beagleboard.googlecode.com/files/signGP.c

So, you have to present a patch in your private BSP to do that!


Some comments to the file x-load-f243938.tar.bz2:

The source package x-load-f243938.tar.bz2 located on the Pengutronix
mirror is a snapshot of this git repo by Steve Sakoman:

https://gitorious.org/x-load-omap3/mainline/commit/f243938

PTXdist is a distribution build and management system and requires
source tarballs in a specific given version. The problem with x-load is,
that there is nowhere a official source tarball storage with latest
releases. That's why Pengutronix (Marc) have upload this snapshot.

Feel free to submit a patch (and a new source tarball) for a newer
x-load version to ptxdist mailing list that solves your problems.

br,
Stephan
