  • Kernel updated to linux-linaro 2013.05 release
  • GDB updated to 7.6
  • Libunwind updated to newest patches

Known Issues

Linaro OpenEmbedded images are made up of two components. The Linux kernel file with boot wrapper shim and a Root file system (RootFS) image of your choice.

Using pre-built image

Prerequisites

  • Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit or newer on your desktop PC (www.ubuntu.com)
  • Foundation or Virtual Express fast model (Linaro ARMv8 Engineering)
  • This release pre-built image, which you can downloaded from the above list.

Installation Steps

  • Unzip the downloaded pre-built image

Booting the image

./Foundation_v8 --image img-foundation.axf \
  --block-device vexpress64-openembedded_IMAGENAME-armv8_IMAGEDATE-XYZ.img \
  --network nat

Initial setup

mkdir openembedded
cd openembedded
git clone git://git.linaro.org/openembedded/jenkins-setup.git
cd jenkins-setup
git checkout release-13.04
cd ..
sudo bash jenkins-setup/pre-build-root-install-dependencies.sh
bash jenkins-setup/init-and-build.sh

This will clone all required repositories and does initial setup.

Do a build

cd openembedded/openembedded-core
. oe-init-build-env ../build
bitbake bash

Of course you can use other targets instead of “bash”. Use “linaro-image-minimal” to build simple rootfs.

Usable build targets

  • linaro-image-minimal – very minimal rootfs
  • linaro-image-lamp – LAMP stack and toolchain
