New page

Reciva provides sources for the Linux kernel used on the Barracuda on the GPL archive page. First inspection of these sources show the following:

* A [[UART]] should be available somewhere on the hardware and a console is enabled

* [[LIRC]] (linux remote control) might be available

* more to discover here of course

== Building ==

The following worked for me:

=== Creating the toolchain ===

It seems that reciva uses glibc 2.3.2 and gcc 3.3.4 at this moment. We'll create a
toolchain with the same versions:

* make sure you are not logged in as root
* download and unpack crosstool
* eval `cat arm.dat gcc-3.3.4-glibc-2.3.2.dat` sh all.sh --notest
* In case of PATH_MAX undeclared error, copy the patch from the gcc-3.3.6 directory with

cp patches/gcc-3.3.6/fix-fixincl.patch patches/gcc-3.3.4/

* and run the eval again.
* Have some <s>coffee</s> beer

=== Compiling the linux kernel ===

* Download linux sources from Reciva and unpack
* make bast_config
* make menuconfig - exact configuration to be determined
* Edit the top-level makefile in the bast_linux directory and point CROSS_COMPILER to the freshly built toolchain
* The same as above in the recive/Makefile
* make
* make
* make modules
* make -C reciva
