Thanks for the response Marcin :) Toolchains and environments are a nightmare. Scratchbox is good, but I find it hard to know how to set up new environments, for example, the NSLU2/Slug (and that's without the different variants of the Slug images!!!). I see OE has various Slug types and I am still trying to get bootstrap-image to compile properly for a slug :( If I can do N8x0 on OE instead of Scratchbox, it makes maintenance musch easier :) I will check out Poky as well Ian ----- Original Message ---- From: Marcin Juszkiewicz <openembedded at haerwu.biz> To: maemo-developers at maemo.org Sent: Thursday, 21 February, 2008 12:21:33 PM Subject: Re: OpenEmbedded Dnia Thursday, 21 of February 2008, Ian Key napisał: > Following on from the "How to detect Maemo for building...", Marcin > Juszkiewicz specifies OE for package building. > Using, say, Chinook SDK has anyone used OE to build a complete rootfs > and flash on device or use the MMC? OpenEmbedded use 'chinook-compat' distro configuration to build packages compatible with OS2008. It is not used to build whole rootfs. I do not remember does OE already has kernel from OS2008 or not - if not then I will add it soon. This kernel it is present in Poky which is derivated from OE and used by OpenedHand. You can run Poky on any Nokia tablet - we (I work for OH) provide rootfs + kernel on http://pokylinux.org/ website (look into autobuilder output). > If so, what BitBake configurations were used (I notice there are some > N800 .bb files present). MACHINE="nokia800" supports N800 and N810. > What toolchain is used for the compilation? CSL 3.4.4 - same as in Chinook SDK but built from source instead of using binaries. > I'm new to OE and fairly new to Linux development, have been using > Scratchbox for as long as I've done Linux devel (which isn't long), so > any help is appreciated. Grab OE, setup and then set DISTRO="chinook-compat" MACHINE="nokia800" and try to build software. -- JID: hrw-jabber.org OpenEmbedded developer/consultant BSD is for people who love Unix.
