Usually just built the image then copy it to the microsd card. Using python for our development work so we don't need to compile, just edit via ssh (via gsm modem) if we need to make code changes. I've had a lot more troubles building a couple more vm's since. Had a major deadline this morning(all finished nicely) so over the weekend at home without any decent machines ended up customising a console image using opkg. Got that one right, then just dd'd the microsd card for the other boards. Faster than waiting for the build environment to build.

I was using an older version of kermit. Using the latest development version from http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckdaily.html worked for Fedora 12 x86 64-bit. $ wget ftp://www.columbia.edu/kermit/test/tar/x.tar.gz $ tar zxvf x.tar.gz $ cd ckermit-9.0 $ make linux $ su # make install This will install kermit in /usr/local/bin/ If you have a solution for getting psyco JIT to build under 64-bits it would be much appreciated. BTW, how does psyco actually accelerate or speed up the overo-oe build process? Best regards, Elvis |

Hi Alex, I get the following error when attempting to build overo on Fedora 12 x86 64-bit version. Can you tell me how you managed to resolve this? bitbake omap3-console-image Traceback (most recent call last): File "/tool/overo-oe/bitbake/bin/bitbake", line 143, in <module> main() File "/tool/overo-oe/bitbake/bin/bitbake", line 123, in main cooker.parseConfiguration() File "/tool/overo-oe/bitbake/lib/bb/cooker.py", line 68, in parseConfiguration self.parseConfigurationFile( os.path.join( "conf", "bitbake.conf" ) ) File "/tool/overo-oe/bitbake/lib/bb/cooker.py", line 404, in parseConfigurationFile bb.event.fire(bb.event.ConfigParsed(self.configuration.data)) File "/tool/overo-oe/bitbake/lib/bb/event.py", line 67, in fire if tmpHandler(event) == Handled: File "tmpHandler(e)", line 4, in tmpHandler File "<bb>", line 18, in check_sanity NameError: global name 'os' is not defined Best regards, Elvis Dowson |

I was using the older svn repository, and bitbake is now being maintained using the git repository, which has a newer version. Switching to the git version of the bitbake repository helped remove the error, and the build has now commenced! :-) $ git clone git://git.openembedded.org/bitbake.git $ cd bitbake $ git checkout -b 1.8 --track origin/1.8 $ cd ..

I added this entry to my local.conf, but after a full build, my vmware image size is around 25.55GB. Before the build, it was around 12.5GB. Of this 2.5GB goes for the virtual memory RAM, so that makes it roughly around 13GB for a full omap3-console-image build. I'm using Fedora 12 x86 64-bit. So, is this okay, or should it have been significantly lower? Best regards, Elvis Dowson |

However, the hardware it simulates, while still armv7, isn't laid out exactly the same way as an Overo. Things like network, GPIO, video output, and so forth won't match up. So yes, you can emulate it, it can run the code, but it won't be an exact mirror. It would be a little like running the Overo image on a BeagleBoard. Still useful, but only for certain things. --Pat |

Hi Pat, I mainly test software configuration on Overo. Running OS in emulator and not flashing real Gumstix every time sounds like a nice thing to do. Are there instructions how to setup and run qemu-arm with compiled OS build? -david ---------------------------------------- > Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2011 11:22:58 -0500 > From: pa...@su... > To: gum...@li... > Subject: Re: [Gumstix-users] Throwing in the towel... > > On 15/02/11 03:50 AM, Jaime J. wrote: > > Hi, > > I am trying to emulate the Overo Earth board unsuccessfully so far.

I think you can find a generic one of the Qemu site somewhere. Google's your friend. --Pat |

Hi, thanks for the reply. I am trying to run a .jar file on the JamVM used by the Overo board. The board has not arrived yet, so I wanted to play a bit beforehand. I haven't found in the forum any actual instructions or detailed updated how-tos on the Overo board, only on Connex and Verdex. Knowing that it is possible to emulate Overo too, may be you know let me know where could I check the different steps in order to do it? Once I have managed it I'll post the script for everyone to use. Thanks!
