Hi folks,

I need some help with T2, currently I have tried using the 7.0-rc2 snapshot and also used the trunk, and 7.0 branch. I am compiling on Ubuntu 7.10.

7.0-rc2 probably fails on Ubuntu due to the 1-perl cross build. Just check out the
branche/7.0 from SVN - which should also build on Ubuntu.

I am running into issue when trying to configure the Generic with “A Base Selection for Benchmarking purpose” and the compile is failing at Glibc with error that the kernel headers are too old.

The Linux header are included with T2, however maybe this ad-hoc "benchmark" is not correctly configured anymore, as I only quickly stuffed it together for a test (thus the name benchmark). Better select a more useful target, such as generic,
desktop, ...

Also, I have burnt the iso image from your server on a CD and it boots fine on VMWare, but when I boot on a real system, it just gives me the grub text mode prompt “grub>” and I tried playing around with the grub text mode but it doesn’t recognize the cdrom device.

Yeah - I just some month ago improved our GRUB to work around bugs in the
CD-ROM emulation, so the next ISOs should work better.

When you build your own ISOs you could also choose to use syslinux.

I have read the documentation and there doesn’t seem to be a standard reliable and working way to repeat build images documented somewhere. Would somebody please help me with a short list of instructions that are guaranteed to build a system.

I have to create my linux build environment and install on a USB Flash drive, and I will be happy if somebody can provide some instructions for that as well.

You can build a normal T2 ISO with Grub, and then use our iso2stick converter script which comes with T2 co install the system bootable onto a USB Stick:

./misc/archive/iso2stick.sh some-t2-target-with-grub.iso /dev/sdb # or what your stick device is
