Hi, Thanks for feedback from you. Embedded system native package building and image creation might not be the regular case as frequently embedded system do not provide power needed for that. So let's concentrate to cross-compilation.
One need first working toolchain. In next steps one can build BSP, user-space, image(-s). Is the sequence of step as presented previously the right one? step 1: bitbake <image-name> -c populate_sdk step : build bootloader, kernel step : bitbake <image-name> krzysiek From: ChenQi [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, 17.

Downloading then installing precompiled SDK was one of all available options according to Alex. He elaborates how to find it on server in Internet, how to select needed one and install it. I wonder how to integrate downloaded and installed precompiled SDK to Poky release used on build system? I'd suggest you not using precompiled SDK unless you are justing doing some simple cross compilation that requires no additional libs, header files, etc. 2. Preparing / building SDK by oneself was further option with image target's 'populate_sdk' Bitbake task as the recommended way (according to Alex in chapter's certain section). One would need only to start populate_sdk task for image which matches root file system of system in development. As soon as task completed SDK can be installed using generated script. But how does it work for first build where rootfs was not built in the past. Is in that case following procedure the proper one? step 1: bitbake <image-name> -c populate_sdk step 2: bitbake <image-name> The populate_sdk task directly installs rpm packages (nativesdk ones and target ones) to form an SDK. It does not need rootfs to be generated first. Normally you use an SDK for a specific target. So the `bitbake IMAGE' is used to generate the image, and `bitbake IMAGE -c populate_sdk' is used to generate the SDK for the image.
