I have been following these instructions in the developer site here:
http://dev.ardupilot.com/wiki/setting-up-sitl-on-linux/
All is good with no errors until Step 6 - Start Up
I get the following - the problem is that SITL can't make properly. What am I missing?

Worked it out - just had to run make configure which created the file.
Working now - just have to figure out how to work it.
