Re: How To Compile Your Own Kernels, Modules, Tinboot (NAND boot), and More for Begin

OK Ive tried everything I can think of. It begins to compile and at the last minuet I get this:

Outputting files to /home/edouble/android/output/sdcard

What am I missing. I followed the instructions to the letter. Im thinking this has something to do with where the compiler puts the .NHB file but Im not sure. Plz help.... Thanks....:cwm10:

So, two things. First, you still need to install wine. Just do a sudo apt-get install wine. Second, I need to fix a tiny bit in the script. I changed it up for people who didn't put the android folder in their home directory and forgot to fix the relative path on tinboot.

Edit: OK, pretty sure I found the issue with the XIP part. Once you get wine installed, I think you'll be all set :)

one thing not in the instructions that is needed is a:

mkdir /home/edouble/android/output/sdcard

also as natemcnutty said, you still need to install wine =D

There are a couple of folders that need to be made. One pointed above, and the XIP folder. You already created it but it was made in the android folder and not the tinboot-linux-msm like it should be.

Then the code will work great! Thanks again!

Code:

if [ ! -d "$TINBOOT/xip" ] ; then

mkdir $TINBOOT/xip

fi

if [ ! -d "$OUTPUT_PATH" ] ; then

mkdir $OUTPUT_PATH

mkdir $OUTPUT_PATH/sdcard

fi

Re: How To Compile Your Own Kernels, Modules, Tinboot (NAND boot), and More for Begin

OK, installed wine and added the extra folders. I did start over to make sure everything was done correctly. I get to the end as before but this time I get:

Outputting files to /home/edouble/android/output/sdcard

mv: cannot move `tinbootxip' to `xip/rhod210': No such file or directory

updating: output/ruu_signed.NBH (deflated 11%)

The compiler stops there and then gives me the command prompt. I really feel like a noob but I really want to try this out. What am I missing?

I will try running the script with rhod210 when I get home if this isn't resolved. I myself ran it as rhod400, so I will see what different results I get when I run it as your model.

Edit:

Try finding this part of the code in the script:

Code:

$TOOLCHAIN_PATH-objcopy tinboot.o -O binary tinbootxip

mv tinbootxip xip/$1

and changing it to

Code:

$TOOLCHAIN_PATH-objcopy tinboot.o -O binary tinbootxip

mkdir xip/$1

mv tinbootxip xip/$1

that should clear up the first error, unless it cannot find tinbootxip. if thats the case, i will have to look at it more when i get home

Code:

mv: cannot move `tinbootxip' to `xip/rhod210': No such file or directory

as far as the

Code:

mv: cannot stat `os.nb.payload.NEW': No such file or directory

i will have to wait until i get home to look at. that'll be like 3 hours or so.

Add the lines of code to the script from my post above this and it should work out just fine.

Thanks. Yeah, all of the problems are because I removed the relative references. I always run my script from the tinboot directory, and my script was grabbing the pwd. I had this:

if [ ! -d "$TINBOOT/xip" ] ; then
mkdir xip
fi

instead of

if [ ! -d "$TINBOOT/xip" ] ; then
mkdir $TINBOOT/xip
fi

That should be fixed now. Also, I missed the fact that the buildxip.sh script in tinboot actually has if -a instead of if -d which will fail the build as well :(

Re: How To Compile Your Own Kernels, Modules, Tinboot (NAND boot), and More for Begin

OK, if you could, please try creating a new fullbuild.sh based on the updates I just made. I made sure that all pathing is correct regardless of where you launch the script from, and as long as you specify the locations of your sources in the beginning, it will work perfectly.

I tested moving my sources around, tested the new script, and compiling was still successful :)
