How to setup Overo build environment on Mac OS X 10.5.5

[Crossley, Malcolm (GE EntSol, Intelligent Platforms)]

Hi,

 

You need to set the variable - BUILD_ARCH. 

This variable is defined in <OE_INSTALL>/conf/bitbake.conf.

 

I hope that helps

Hi,

        I followed the instructions given here gumstix developer site -
Setting up a build environment ,
<http://www.gumstix.net/Software/view/Software-Overo/Setting-up-a-build-
environment/111.html> to setup the build environment using OpenEmbedded.

 

In terms of package dependecies, I just ran into 3 missing packages: 

 

a. md5sum, for which I resolved by creating an alias in the /sbin
directory by typing ln -s md5 md5sum

b. gawk, which I resolved by downloading gawk-3.1.6.tar.gz and running
the ./configure command, then doing a make -j 2 and sudo make install.

c. help2man, which I resolved by downloading help2man-1.35.1.tar and
running ./configure --enable-nls=no and doing a make and install.

 

Now when I run the bitbake omap3-console-image command, it progresses
for sometime and stops at the following point with a lot of errors:

 

elvis-dowsons-macbook-pro:gawk-3.1.6 elvis$ bitbake omap3-console-image

NOTE: Psyco JIT Compiler (http://psyco.sf.net <http://psyco.sf.net/> )
not available. Install it to increase performance.

NOTE: Handling BitBake files: | (3416/6265) [54 %]ERROR: Information not
available for target 'i386-darwin'

 

My Mac Book is an Intel Core 2 Duo system, and valid targets are i386
and x86_64.

 

Question 01: How can I change this so that bitbake uses i386 as the
target architecture, rather than i386-darwin?

 

Best regards,

 

Elvis Dowson
