I've compiled on beaglebone using these steps. The process runs much
faster when running out of EMMC, so I recommend that you flash your SD card
image onto the BBB, otherwise it will take hours.
The swapfile is necessary as you've noted. My first compile failed in the
same way but I had another window open running 'top' which showed all of
memory being consumed, and then the crash. Running 'top' is an easy way to
verify that a swap file is being used.
>From my notes:
----Build machinekit on the beaglebone----
Start with this image:
bone-debian-8.7-machinekit-armhf-2017-03-12-4gb.img.xz
install on an SD card and boot holding the boot button down at power-on
open a terminal up, and use the following instructions:
add a swap file first:
dd if=/dev/zero of=my_swap bs=1024 count=524288
mkswap my_swap
sudo chown root my_swap
sudo chmod 600 my_swap
sudo swapon my_swap
you can make the file permanent by adding a line to fstab
/path-to-file/my_swap swap swap defaults 0 0
then do this to build machinekit:
sudo apt-get remove --purge machinekit
rm -rf machinekit
sudo apt-get install libczmq-dev python-zmq libjansson-dev pkg-config \
libwebsockets-dev libxenomai-dev python-pyftpdlib cython bwidget
lsb-release
sudo apt-get install git dpkg-dev
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends devscripts equivs
git clone https://github.com/machinekit/machinekit.git
cd machinekit
# to add RT-PREEMPT support, add a 'r'
# to add Xenomai support, add an 'x'
# this builds for Posix, RT-PREEMPT, Xenomai:
debian/configure -prx
sudo mk-build-deps -ir
cd src
./autogen.sh
# for the Beaglebone, add --with-platform-beaglebone to ./configure
# for the Raspberry2, add --with-platform-raspberry to ./configure
# for PC platforms, add --with-rt-preempt --with-posix --with-xenomai
./configure --with-platform-beaglebone
make <-- this takes a LONG time
sudo make setuid
Hope this helps!
