    I simply want to download the linux source + the source of the library that it needs (newlib etc). Then I make a simple project of these two source in Keil and compile it.

    No, you cannot do that. Let's start with the fact that uVision lacks the functionality that's necessary to build a linux kernel.

    If not why?

    I told you why in my previous post, but apparently you ignored my answer. Again: the linux build system is heavily dependent on gcc/binutils/make. None of those programs are shipped by Keil. That's why.
