Introduction
'Poky' is a combined cross build system and linux distribution based upon OpenEmbedded. It features support for building X11/Matchbox/GTK based filesystem images for various embedded devices and boards.
Required Packages
Running Poky on Debian based distributions requires the following extra packages be installed;
build-essential diffstat texi2html cvs subversion gawk
You also need to install the qemu from http://debian.o-hand.com/. Alternatively poky can build qemu itself, but for this you need the following packages installed;
gcc-3.4 libsdl1.2-dev zlib1g-dev
You will also need to comment out ASSUME_PROVIDED += "qemu-native"' in
build/conf/local.conf.
Building under other distro's such as Fedora is known to work. Use the above package names as a guide for dependencies.
Building An Image
Simply run;
% source poky-init-build-env % bitbake oh-image-pda
This will result in an ext2 image and kernel for qemu arm (see scripts dir).
To build for other machine types see MACHINE in build/conf/local.conf
