AU: T-CHL5DAUC, T-CHL7DAUC, T-CHU7DAUC

EU: T-CHL5DEUC, T-CHL7DEUC, T-CHU7DEUC

Supported host systems are: Linux Debian 5.0 and Ubuntu 10.4 (both 32/64 bits versions), Mac OS X 10.5.6 (using Fink 32 bits)

Host systems need some preparations:

Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo apt-get install build-essential coreutils subversion cvs git-core texi2html texinfo \
patch help2man intltool diffstat bzip2 wget sed gawk chrpath desktop-file-utils libssl-dev

Ubuntu only:

You need to reconfigure /bin/sh to use bash using below command and select "No" when it asks you to install dash as /bin/sh.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash

Mac OS X:

Install Xcode from install DVD.

Install Fink using instruction http://www.finkproject.org/download/srcdist.php?phpLang=en .

Install needed packages:

fink install gawk sed wget getoptbin help2man texinfo desktop-file-utils

Do workaround OE sanity checks for chrpath:

sudo touch /usr/local/bin/chrpath

Pull SamyGO OpenEmbedded from trunk svn repository:

svn co http://samygo.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/samygo samygo

after pull, you can enter samygo directory:

cd samygo/oe/trunk

then do:

. setup.sh

Script setup will generate two files: build-samygo/conf/local.conf and build-samygo/env.source .

Now you are in build-samygo directory.

If you like build only a toolchain use this command:

bitbake task-samsung-toolchain

If you like build rootfs image for tv with firmware T-CHL7DEUC use this command:

bitbake externalboot-T-CHL7DEUC

After building all tools, results are at build-samygo/tmp/deploy/images directory.
