| − | Note: Most likely /bin/sh is linked to /bin/dash. If so, then change /bin/sh to link to /bin/bash. If you don't this could cause file corruption and the build image wont work! Run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash" and select "no" on the screen when given the option to install dash as /bin/sh.

| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI>/home/yourname/slug/set-env

| − | <LI>/home/yourname/slug/bitbake-1.8.12/openembedded/packages/hello-1.0.bb

| + | |
| − | <LI>/home/yourname/slug/bitbake-1.8.12/conf/local.conf
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In the bitbake.conf file – located in the conf folder, ensure that OEDIR is set to: /home/yourname/slug
| + | |
| − | Also ensure that you change the path in the files you just created to match your directory structure
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In /home/yourname/slug run:
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI>$sudo ./set-env
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This sets up the openembedded environment which is needed to finish running everything from bitbake

| − | <H2>Building Hello World</H2>
| + | |
| − | Once all files are in the correct place and the dependencies are installed, run the following:
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI>$cd /home/yourname/slug/bitbake-1.8.12/openembedded/packages
| + | |
| − | <LI>$bitbake world
| + | |
| − | OR
| + | |
| − | <LI>$bitbake –b hello
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | World will build everything in the folder
| + | |
| − | -b hello will only build the hello package
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI>$sudo apt-get install hello
| + | |
| − | <LI>$hello
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | This will print out “hello world!”
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | <H2>Running on Verdex Pro</H2>
| + | |
| − | The previous instructions will cause problems using Ubuntu8.10 when getting the basic image built. There is a workaround by installing the old version of gcc, but as this caused other problems, I regressed to Ubuntu 8.4. Here is how I got the image built to install on the Verdex Pro. Ensure you follow the note at the top of the page and switch the bash pointer.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Dependencies
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI>Follow the Previous instruction on installing Ubuntu, but install version 8.4
| + | |
| − | <LI> You can setup your own password during installation
| + | |
| − | <LI> Then follow the instructions to download and install the dependencies, but don't download bitbake yet
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Setup
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI> Go back to your home folder
| + | |
| − | <LI> $mkdir gumstix
| + | |
| − | <LI> $cd gumstix
| + | |
| − | <LI> $svn co https://gumstix.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/gumstix/trunk gumstix-oe
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This can take a little bit to download. Once its done then do the following:
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI> $cat gumstix-oe/extras/profile >> ~/.bashrc
| + | |
| − | <LI> $ sudo groupadd oe
| + | |
| − | <LI> $ sudo usermod -a -G oe your_username
| + | |
| − | <LI> $ sudo mkdir /usr/share/sources
| + | |
| − | <LI> $ sudo chgrp oe /usr/share/sources
| + | |
| − | <LI> $ sudo chmod 0775 /usr/share/sources
| + | |
| − | <LI> $ sudo chmod ug+s /usr/share/sources
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | I found that I had to change some permissions on folders in order to get everything to run. Make sure that you have full permission to the gumstix folder without having to sudo. Then do the following
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI> $bitbake gumstix-basic-image
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | On my Acer this build took almost 8 hours, so don't panic if it seems to hang at some points. There were some points in which my machine would try to connect to the repositories to download info and it would have to try several times, which obviously added time to the build.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | When the build is done and you are back at your prompt:
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI> ls ~/gumstix/gumstix-oe/tmp/deploy/glibc/images/gumstix-custom-verdex/
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | This will show you several files. You want to ensure that you have the following files:
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI>gumstix-basic-image-gumstix-custom-verdex.jffs2
| + | |
| − | <LI> uImage-2.6.22-r1-gumstix-custom-verdex.bin
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | These are the files you will be shooting over to the verdex pro. Now you have to setup Kermit:
| + | |
| − | <UL>
| + | |
| − | <LI> $ sudo apt-get install ckermit
| + | |
| − | </UL>
| + | |
| − | Then create a script in your home directory (it doesn't really matter where, just somewhere you can get to it easily)
| + | |
| − | Add the following and make sure to change the take line to match your path:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | #!/usr/bin/kermit +
| + | |
| − | kermit -l /dev/ttyUSB0
| + | |
| − | set speed 115200
| + | |
| − | set reliable
| + | |
| − | fast
| + | |
| − | set carrier-watch off
| + | |
| − | set flow-control none
| + | |
| − | set prefixing all
| + | |
| − | set file type bin
| + | |
| − | set rec pack 4096
| + | |
| − | set send pack 4096
| + | |
| − | set window 5
| + | |
| − | take /home/yourname/gumstix/gumstix-oe/extras/kermit-setup
| + | |
| − | connect
| + | |
