Honored ContributorBy now I have a customized branch for our product. We would like to distribute on DVD the entire development environment. So given the distributed nature of GIT, is it possible to create a disk image that can
be installed and includes all of the files necessary to build my custom system locally? Sorry for the dumb question, but I'm a GIT newbie..
Honored ContributorI created the nios2-linux tar ball using this script.
- Hippo mkdir nios2-linux cd nios2-linux for i in binutils gcc3 linux-2.6 toolchain-build uClibc elf2flt insight u-boot uClinux-dist glibc do git clone -n git://sopc.et.ntust.edu.tw/git/$i.git done cd linux-2.6 git remote add linus git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git git remote add linus_http http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git cd .. cd uClinux-dist git remote add blackfin git://sources.blackfin.uclinux.org/git/readonly-mirrors/uclinux-dist.git git remote add blackfin_ssh git+ssh://anonymous@firewall-sources.blackfin.uclinux.org:443/git/readonly-mirrors/uclinux-dist.git cd .. cd uClibc git remote add uclibc git://git.busybox.net/uClibc cd .. cd u-boot git remote add denx git://www.denx.de/git/u-boot.git cd ..Honored ContributorThanks Hippo, that is helpful info. Currently I am having a problem regenerating the auto-gen make files in the linux-2.6 directory. I need to do this as the current paths are wrong in the makefiles (from my old machine). Do I need to follow the " BUILD directory for the kernel:" steps in the linux-2.6 readme file? Thanks, Alex
Honored ContributorWhat auto-gen make files do you mean?
If you use git, those auto-gen make files will be ignored. - HippoHonored ContributorI added some drivers and made some other changes, most notably in the linux-2.6 directory. Now I would like to redistribute this version of the tree with our product. So I committed the changes and made a tar ball. But when I untar the distribution on a new machine and run checkout, it does not regenerate the Makefiles. So the paths are all wrong. That is, they are the paths from the installation on my old machine. Sorry for the stupid question Hippo, but I just don't understand how it's supposed to work. Alex
Honored ContributorHi Alex,
Let's discuss this on the nios2-dev mailing list. It will be more comfortable for me. Please give me examples of the corrupted paths and files. - Hippo
