Title:Compiling and installing the Dreamcast Linux kernel ! Section: Development Section ! ! ! <h4>Getting the sources from CVS</h4> ! ! The kernel sources are easiest obtainable from our anonymous CVS ! hosted at sourceforge.net. Simply do: ! ! <pre>cvs -z9 -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/linuxdc login</pre> ! ! Hit enter when asked for password. ! ! <pre>cvs -z9 -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/linuxdc co linux</pre> ! ! <p>Wait for a good while. The source tree is about 120MB, and packed ! on-demand it is probably somewhere around 25MBs to get over the ! line.</p> ! ! ! <h4>Configuring the kernel</h4> ! ! <p>Once the tree is down, copy this <a href="dotconfig">.config file</a> ! as a starting point for your compilation. Put it in the 'linux' ! directory and name it '.config'.</p> ! ! <p>Run 'make menuconfig' then exit and save so that the correct ! symlinks and such are created. There's not anything you should ! alter in the configuarion for now since all DCs are pretty much alike, ! and we don't support the BBA yet</p> ! ! ! <h4>Compiling the sources</h4> ! ! <p>If you have your tools in the path, do:</p> ! ! <pre>make CROSS_COMPILE=sh-linux-gnu- dep zImage</pre> ! ! <p>If not, do, but replace [path-to-tools] with something ! sensible:</p> ! ! <pre>make CROSS_COMPILE=[path-to-tools]/sh-linux-gnu- dep zImage</pre> ! ! ! <h4>Setting kernel boot parameters</h4> ! ! The <a href="options">default options file</a> enables the DC ! framebuffer (that is the DC video/VGA output) as the console. You ! might want to have the output to serial instead, if so, add ! 'console=ttySC1,57600' to the options file. ! ! You should make certain that the final character in the options file ! is a zero byte. This is easiest done by insuring that you have a ! newline at the end of the options file, then issue this command: ! <pre>tr '\n' '\0' < options > options.bin</pre> ! ! To verify, less options.bin and look for a ^@ character at the very ! end of the file. ! ! <h4>Uploading the kernel to DC</h4> ! ! To ease the drudgery here, use this <a href="Makefile.dcload">uploading ! makefile</a> that takes the necessary steps and puts the correct files ! at the correct memory addresses. ! ! Edit the first few lines in the Makefile to point to your tools. ! ! Make certain that options.bin and zImage (from linux/arch/sh/boot/zImage) ! are in the directory you run the Makefile from. ! ! Before running make, you must boot the DC with the dcload CD ! image. Once it has loaded properly, do: ! ! <pre>make</pre> ! ! and wait for the two files to upload. The kernel will be executed once ! it's uploaded. ! ! <h4>Conclusion</h4> ! ! We hope this installation was just as easy as installing a new printer ! filter in your favourite Unix distro. It was certainly our aim. ! ! As the linuxdc kernel and tools stabilise, we'll be looking into ! providing packages and scripts that take on much of the dreary stuff ! in this HOWTO, but until then you have to sit tight.
