Gumstix BitBake onDAQ

errors encountered installing the crosscompiler on the DAQ machine

Note

It fails if there are any error messages so follow all the installation requests until it starts saying it is "Handling BitBake files"...

preferred version 2.5 of glibc not available (for item virtual/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-libc-for-gcc)

You need to install Pysco

svn co http://codespeak.net/svn/psyco/dist/ psyco-dist

To make an image to burn onto the gumstix use:

bitbake gumstix-basic-image

where "gumstix-basic-image" is a recipe from the directory gumstix-oe/com.gumstix.collection/packages/images/

The cross-compiler binaries can be found in:

gumstix-oe/tmp/cross/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-*
