Quick Start¶

Requirements¶

Install the required packages.

Installation¶

Clone the Yocto Project Git repository into the current working directory.

git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky -b dizzy

Clone all needed meta layers Git repository inside the poky Git repository directory.

cd poky
git clone git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded -b dizzy
git clone http://opensource.cit-ec.de/git/meta-openrobotix.git -b <desiredBranch>
git clone http://opensource.cit-ec.de/git/meta-cerebric.git -b <desiredBranch>

Create the Yocto Project build directory in the current working directory.

source oe-init-build-env

Check and edit the resulting conf/local.conf file. Minimally configure the MACHINE variable to your processor board.

MACHINE ??= "cerebric" 

Update the conf/bblayers.conf file so that the BBLAYERS variable includes the absolute path to all needed meta layers.

meta-openembedded/meta-oe
meta-openembedded/meta-networking
meta-openrobotix
meta-cerebric

Image generation¶

Setup the build environment and generate the openrobotix-image-core (to build the full image with all features [like RSB] use openrobotix-image-basic).

cd poky
source oe-init-build-env
bitbake openrobotix-image-core

Toolchain generation¶

Setup the build environment and generate the meta-tootlchain-openrobotix.

cd poky
source oe-init-build-env
bitbake meta-toolchain-openrobotix
