Buildroot and Crosstool-NG configuration error

Building a root filesystem on Buildroot for a Beaglebone Black target. Using a crosstool-NG toolchain with buildroot and I am getting this error in buildroot:

Any idea how to fix this?

When using a custom external toolchain in Buildroot you have to tell Buildroot which kernel headers have been used to build the toolchain.

Just enter make menuconfig -> Toolchain -> External toolchain kernel headers series to set it.
