Hello list I know it's not the official way of doing things, but i'm just getting started with openmoko development and I'm trying to use mokomakefile to get a quick-start..
I'm using Ubuntu 7.04, workstation is a P4D 2.8GHz, with 1GB ram and loads of hd-space. I follow this: http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Getting_OpenMoko_working_on_host_with_Xoo guide and all is well up to th point where I should build the openmoko-devel-image. after 30 - 40 minutes of compiling different packages, my workstation almost stops responding.. the load is between 16.00 and 20.00, and I have a process (ccl) that consumes 45% of my ram. it's always the compile of busybox that triggers this.. all other compiles works fine. is this the way it's supposed to work? should I just let it churn away at it? apx. how long will a full compile of the openmoko-devel-image take on my hardware? Best regards Henrik Width
