High Performance Low Cost Embedded Systems
(1) Get Linux source code ready
In Fedora9, create a temporary director “/tmp/linux” by running the following command
#mkdir /tmp/linux
Copy all the files in the linux directory in the shipped CD to “/tmp/linux”
(2) Uncompress the Linux kernel source code
In the work directory /opt/FriendlyARM/mini2440, run the commands below:
#cd /opt/FriendlyARM/mini2440
#tar xvzf /tmp/linux/linux-2.6.29-mini2440-20090331.tgz
A linux-2.6.29 directory will be created, it includes a complete copy of linux kernel source code.
Note: 20090331 is the date when FriendlyARM released the new version, the file name in the
shipped CD may be different.
(3) Uncompress Qtopia source code
In the work directory /opt/FriendlyARM/mini2440, run the commands below:
#cd /opt/FriendlyARM/mini2440
#tar xvzf /tmp/linux/x86-qtopia.tgz
#tar xvzf /tmp/linux/arm-qtopia.tgz
An x86-qtopia directory and an arm-qtopia directory will be created, and their source code will
be uncompressed into these two directories.
Note: in this release, supports for mouse and tp are all included in one package. And the source
code for the embedded browser konquor is included too.
(4) Uncompress busybox source code
The Busybox is a compact Linux tool kit. Here we used busybox-1.13.3. Users can download its
latest version from http://www.busybox.net
In the work directory /opt/FriendlyARM/mini2440, run the commands below:
#cd /opt/FriendlyARM/mini2440
#tar xvzf /tmp/linux/busybox-1.13.3-mini2440.tgz
