Compiling and flashing on ubuntu #1

Open albfan opened 10 years ago

albfan commented 10 years ago

Finally I found your migration to github.

I have a series of patches to compile b-series on latest ubuntu. https://github.com/albfan/samygo-b-series.git

Let me rebase my changes against this repo (mine is a svn clone but it is just 1or 2 commits ago) and send you a pull request if it is still needed.

What should be done after bitbake externalboot-base? How to get a firmware ready to usb flash?

albfan commented 10 years ago

I have rebased an seems (looking at .gitignore file) you are compiling on a mac (or any darwin system) so linux compilation actually needs some tweaks.

how to use builded image it's described on samygo wiki, there are two pages related: http://wiki.samygo.tv/index.php5/Boot_from_USB_using_u-boot http://wiki.samygo.tv/index.php5?title=SamyGO_OpenEmbedded

Uhmm, rather unspecific:

T-CHL5DEUC-2009.0 is not mentioned, is this project usable with it?

aquadran commented 10 years ago

"When to choose or not multilib?" what choose ? "Why there are symlinks on some files?" since darwin use bsd tools which are not often compatible and you need provide GNU ones, but localization depend on distribution "How to know if kernel has ethernet capabilities?" you don't know, I didn't find way. "Unpack image to second partition with root rights. it means chmod 700 or what?" No, image already contains root rights and /dev files, it need simply untared with root rights by using sudo for example "Put kernel image to proper place. What place?" depend on context: NFS - proper directory on TFTP root, USB - on first FAT partition. It's described on wiki, at least it was. "LaunchCLManager.zip is still broken" it's fixed now "T-CHL5DEUC-2009.0 is not mentioned, is this project usable with it?" it was at some point, but I dropped, no much help from testers, I got tired

I don't want put binaries there

albfan commented 10 years ago

so there is to versions of kernel. one has "multilib" on its name

Is this maybe two repeated lines about same task?. It's confusing

Just need some guides on what to test or improve

Pawel, don't get tired, the project is huge, with lot of ramifications, but it's astonishing too.

"so there is to versions of kernel. it's not "multilib" but it's multi-config, it was part of support for B6000 and B550. there was three kernels in past. so 3 kernel configs. "kernel with network capabilities" there was support for network for B6000(or B550) series in past, if you look into branch history "root rights (extract from wiki)" corrected "LaunchCLManager" yes, I don't want put it on samygo download pages "Pawel, don't get tired, the project is huge, with lot of ramifications, but it's astonishing too." I meant for past. People wanted something test and vanish, that was kind of annoying repeating every new person what to do for test. Currently USB booting for me it's a past. What I maintannce is ScummVM builds for releases. And SamyGO project as whole is a big mess too. "Just need some guides on what to test or improve" things needs revive from SVN, or maybe from this repo, don't remember when I removed it.
