   libboard.a:

   ```
   
   The issue seems to be a missing Makefile in the src subdirectory of the custom board. If I add one with a small echo comment in it, I see it displayed.
   
   the makefile is probably optional for built-in boards but it is required for custom boards.
   
   So WHAT makefile has to be there and with what rules?
