+Poky platform builder is a combined cross build system and development
|
|
|
+environment. It features support for building X11/Matchbox/GTK based
|
|
|
+filesystem images for various embedded devices and boards. It also
|
|
|
+supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation
|
|
|
+and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
+Poky has an extensive handbook, the source of which is contained in

-Required Packages
|
|
|
-===
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Running Poky on Debian based distributions requires the following
|
|
|
-extra packages be installed;
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-build-essential
|
|
|
-diffstat
|
|
|
-texinfo
|
|
|
-texi2html
|
|
|
-cvs
|
|
|
-subversion
|
|
|
-gawk
|
|
|
-bochsbios (to run qemux86 images)
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-You also need to install the qemu from http://debian.o-hand.com/. A
|
|
|
-poky-depends deb is also available from this source which will install
|
|
|
-all the dependencies mentioned above for you.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Alternatively poky can build qemu itself, but for this you need the
|
|
|
-following packages installed;
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-gcc-3.4
|
|
|
-libsdl1.2-dev
|
|
|
-zlib1g-dev
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-You will also need to comment out ASSUME_PROVIDED += "qemu-native"' in
|
|
|
-build/conf/local.conf.
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Building under other distro's such as Fedora is known to work. Use the above
|
|
|
-package names as a guide for dependencies.
|
|

|
|
|
-Building An Image
|
|
|
-===
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-Simply run;
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-% source poky-init-build-env
|
|
|
-% bitbake poky-image-sato
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-This will result in an ext2 image and kernel for qemu arm (see scripts dir).
|
|
|
-
|
|
|
-To build for other machine types see MACHINE in build/conf/local.conf
|
|
|
-
|
