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 32/64 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 libX11-dev libXt-dev

Ubuntu/Debian(from 6.0):

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 Fink:

Install Xcode.

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

Mac OS X MacPorts:

Install Xcode.

Install MacPorts using instruction http://www.macports.org/install.php .

Install needed packages:

sudo port install gawk gsed wget getopt help2man texinfo intltool desktop-file-utils coreutils gnutar





Pull SamyGO OpenEmbedded from branch branch-b-series in svn repository:

svn co http://samygo.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/samygo/branches/branch-b-series samygo

after pull, you can enter samygo directory:

cd samygo

then do:

. setup.sh

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

If you like build rootfs image use this command:

bitbake externalboot-base

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