[Openembedded-users] do_compile failed with missing arm-linux-ar

[Michael Fung]

Dear all,


I tried to build the kernel using the vendor supplied kernel source tree.

I put the vendor kernel tree into the original build folder:
/oe/build/tmp/work/mini6410-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/linux-2.6.28-r15/

kernel .config is ready.

Then run "bitbake -c compile virtual/kernel"

The do_compile task failed. Below is the log.do_compile:

The interesting output is:
"/bin/sh: /usr/local/arm/4.2.2-eabi/usr/bin/arm-linux-ar: No such file"

But, I cannot find any file that mention this binary in the tree.

Any ideas please?


Rgds,
