Hey Peter,
We're still using GCC5 for most of our testing. Try building with that
release:
apt install gcc-5
Then in Conf/target.txt:
TOOL_CHAIN_TAG = GCC5
Cheers,
Stephano

OK
Building went well to a certain point. I successfully git cloned. I
built the BaseTools.
I (seemingly successfully) setup the build shell environment. (I got no errors.)
In the target conf file I chose "IA32 X64" and ELFGCC (since I habe
gcc 7.3.0 installed).
When I type "build", there comes an error like "Command build not found".
I thought that maybe it's because of the shell environment variable
$PATH. $PATH does NOT contain the edk2 source directory in any way
(despite the fact that I entered "export EDK_TOOLS_PATH...").
What can I do?
Greetings
Peter

Hello Peter,
Thanks for giving EDK2 a try!
We have a set of simple instructions for folks building on standard
Linux distros. Please have a look at this page:
https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Common-instructions
Note: Be sure the TARGET_ARCH is set correctly. (E.g. TARGET_ARCH = x64)
Once you have built the BaseTools and MdeModulePkg without any errors,
you can try building and running in OVMF:
https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/How-to-build-OVMF
Tip: Add the -j option so that you can grep through the log easily for
any errors (build -j /path/to/log/file.txt).
Hopefully those links help get you started. Let me know if you run into
any other issues.
Cheers,
Stephano

Hello, I'm a total newbie to Tianocore/EDK2/OVMF.
(My coding is at high school level I think, not university level. I
have some (small) experience writing in Assembler, C, C++. I wrote a
little bootloader, so I know something about filesystem in general and
ext2 and pre-kernel "environment".)
I use xubuntu 18.04 on an AMD 64bit PC.
I'm currently trying to
1.) build OVMF from source
2.) and then want to run it in/with Qemu.
3.) Later I would like to try to write a simple ext2 "driver". Can't
guarantee I will succeed, but let's see.
So far I have
1.) downloaded the whole edk2 zip/tar-ball
2.) have installed nasm and ASL (iasl)
3.) Run "EmulatorPkg/build.sh"
4.) Run "OvmfPkg/build.sh -a X64"
5.) Run "OvmfPkg/build.sh -a X64 qemu"
Then I get the error message "qemu-system-x86_64: -pflash
/home/peter/Schreibtisch/edk2-master/Build/OvmfX64/DEBUG_GCC5/QEMU/bios.bin:
Could not open
'/home/peter/Schreibtisch/edk2-master/Build/OvmfX64/DEBUG_GCC5/QEMU/bios.bin':
No such file or directory"
So my first question is how to deal with this error.
Kind regards
Peter Wiehe
