TI Android GingerBread 2.3.4 DevKit2.1 Developers Guide Issue

Hi.

Build should succeed if you have installed all necessary packages.

Please make sure that you have installed packages mentioned in below link.

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/TI-Android-GingerBread-2.3.4-DevKit-2.1_DeveloperGuide#For_Ubuntu_on_32-bit_machines

Please provide build  log to debug this further.

Regards,

Hello,

I don't have a build log because the compiler does not run on my 64-bit machine. Thr error I get is "make: arm-eabi-gcc: command not found". I have updated my path to point to the compiler, but even if I try to launch arm-eabi.gcc from the folder that contains the arm-eabi-gcc executable I still get the error "arm-eabi-gcc: command not found".

The instructions that you suggest work fine on 32-bit Ubuntu except that the Android kernel will not compile because it says that it requires a 64-bit OS. The x-loader and u-boot compile fine on the 32-bit OS. That's why I switched to 64-bit Ubuntu. Is there a separate set of instructions for 64-bit machines?

This error means that the path is not setup correctly.

Please refer to the following link for setting up the compiler path:

Hello,

Following the instructions in the GingerBread2.3.4DevKit2.1 developers guide fro using the pre-packaged repo places the tools in "<PATH_TO_ROWBOAT>/rowboat-android/TI_Android_GingerBread_2_3_4Sources/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin. Which I have included in my path. This is not the same as the path that the instructions say to use: "<PATH_TO_ROWBOAT>/rowboat-android/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin". I did'n use this path because after following the instructions for installing the pre-packaged repo, this path does not exist.

I also get the same error when I try to launch the compiler from the folder that contains the compiler binary.

Thanks,

Dan

Could you provide us the full path where your android arm-eabi- toolchain is installed and the $PATH setting that you are trying to use?

Hello,

The path to my toolchain is:

~/rowboat-android/TI_Android_GingerBread_2_3_4Sources/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin

My path is:

/home/dan/rowboat-android/TI_Android_GingerBread_2_3_4Sources/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin:/home/dan/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games

Thanks,

Dan

The paths look ok.

I suspect that some ubuntu dependencies may not be satisfied. Do make sure you have all the x86 compatibility libraries recommended by google are installed.

The arm-eabi- toolchain is for x86 and probably may not run directly on x86_64
