Ok, I'll try it tomorrow again.
Could it be that it is not working(only black screen with red xtrend logo was visible) because I didn't deploy all new compiled kernel modules?
Tomorrow I will only compile the kernel and not the packages and the image. I hope this works. Otherwise I'll flash a complete image.

[pieterg]

No, it should boot regardless the modules

[betacentauri]

Third try. Third time it didn't work

Is there something special for a et9200? Or is there a size limit for a kernel (mine is 11,3 MB uncompressed)?

Or I did something wrong, but I don't know what. I only have enabled some parameters in defconfig file like CONFIG_FTRACE, CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER, CONFIG_STACK_TRACER, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG,...

Unfortunately I don't have a nullmodem cable to check what's the real problem...

 

I'll test in the next days flashing a complete image.

[pieterg]

The compressed binary has to fit in the kernel mtd partition.
I don't think there are size limits, other than that.

Use the remove-gets.patch and edit m4-1.4.16.inc in openembedded-core/meta/recipes-devtools/m4
to use the patch.


PR = "r4"
SRC_URI += "file://ac_config_links.patch \
+            file://remove-gets.patch \
           "

SRC_URI[md5sum] = "a5dfb4f2b7370e9d34293d23fd09b280"

put remove-gets.patch in the m4 directory.

Whatever I do, kernel don't boot when I enable kernel tracing . Flashing full image also didn't help...

Really annoying. I'll give up or does anyone here have experiences with kernel tracing on a stb?

[pieterg]

In my opinion, you're often better of adding your own printk debug statements.
If you enable all kernel debugging stuff, you'll probably end up whith a whole pile of debug info, 99.99% of which is not even related to what you are trying to debug.

[MiLo]

I tend to add "pr_debug(...)" statements, and only add a "#define DEBUG" on top of the files i'm interested in. Without that #define, the pr_debug compiles to "nothing". And pr_debug allows you to use that funky kernel debugging interface if you so chose.

I have dared to build an image
from this git https://github.com/O...Box/oe-core.git
My system Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit
it runs without problems until the task rootfs
and here comes the error

Line 118: mipsel-oe-linux-depmod: command not found
NOTE: package enigma2-OpenPLi-image-1.0-r0: task do_rootfs: Failed

what is going wrong

thank donbass

Here is the patch for bison.

Warning you have to add to BASE_SRC_URI and not to SRC_URI

 

P.s. i think is better to not change the openembedded-core submodule but to use bbappend.

 

For example for bison:

 

bison_2.5.bbappend:

PR .= "-p0"

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:"

BASE_SRC_URI += "file://remove-gets.patch"

[mcs]

bacicciosat,

 

Thank you for the help but I think you have forgotten to upload the patch, I would be grateful if you could upload.

Also, I am not sure about bpappend, do I just add the file to the bison recipe folder:

openpli-oe-core/openembedded-core/meta/recipes-devtools/bison/bison

Thanks again

Cheers

[mcs]

Hi,

 

I have just managed to compile on ubuntu 13.04

Could not use bbappend for the patches as suggested by bacicciosat.

This is too difficult for a simple mind like me.

 

As mentioned above, bison ( besides m4) does not compile on Ubuntu 13.04.

 

To get it to compile:

Patch openpli-oe-core/openembedded-core/meta/recipes-devtools/bison/bison_2.5.bb with:

 

PR = "r1"

BASE_SRC_URI = "${GNU_MIRROR}/bison/bison-${PV}.tar.gz \
file://m4.patch \
file://remove-gets-bison.patch \
"
 

 

 

 

Also problems with gettext:

 

| ./stdio.h: : error: 'gets' undeclared here (not in a function)
| make[3]: *** [config.h] Error 1

 

Patch openpli-oe-core/openembedded-core/meta/recipes-core/gettext/gettext_0.18.1.1.bb with:

 

PROVIDES_virtclass-native = "virtual/gettext-native"
CONFLICTS_${PN} = "proxy-libintl"
SRC_URI = "${GNU_MIRROR}/gettext/gettext-${PV}.tar.gz \
+ file://remove-gets-gettext.patch \
"
 

 

 

I enclose the patches. You have to remove the .txt extension. I had to rename because I am not allowed to upload patches

 

Hope that helps soemone

Cheers

mcs

what is going wrong

thank donbass

Think that You will check this out with the makers off that git. It is not from openpli

[MiLo]

There are problems with OpenEmbedded and Ubuntu 13. They're probably solved in the "upstream" branch that more closely follows the OE core. I'd suggest just moving to OpenPLi4 (upstream branch) for your private builds then

[Persian Prince]

i think you can stop the build for

 

http://openpli.org/download/dm7020/

http://openpli.org/download/dm600pvr/

http://openpli.org/download/dm500plus/

 

like other e1 boxes

[WanWizard]

The other E1 images are not being built at the moment because the CDK environment is still broken after the build server crash. As nothing significant has happened in the last few years, it's not high on the priority list...

[formianodicastellone]

 Resolved.
I enclose the two folders to be replaced openvuplus / openembedded-core / meta / recipes-devtools.
