== How to get the Meego distribution ==

* http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/Meego_on_the_Beagle

* http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/Meego_on_Beagleboard_from_scratch

 

== Prepare SGX/GLES libraries ==

 

First of all create a working directory

$ mkdir meego && cd meego

 

Therefore the SGX/GLES libraries are vital to get this running, download the script named create_sgx_package.sh

$ wget http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~beagleboard-kernel/%2Bjunk/2.6-stable/annotate/head:/create_sgx_package.sh

 

Since the SGX drivers are partially TI closed source, you'll have to register and download the file OMAP35x_Graphics_SDK_setuplinux_3_01_00_06.bin from [http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/gfxsdk/latest/index_FDS.html TI's GFX SDK download page]. Then run

$ ./create_sgx_package.sh

== Putting a copy of a Meego root file system on SD card ==

$ sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm-extras-static

Let's start with building the rootfs, first of all create a working directory $ mkdir meego && cd meego Now, download and install pykickstart

$ git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/pykickstart.git

$ cd pykickstart

and build the image with

$ sudo LANG=C mic-image-creator --run-mode=0 --cache=mycachedir --format=fs loop --arch=armv7l --release=daily --compress-disk-image=none --config=handset-armv7l-beagle.ks

You Afterwards, the entire file system will now have be present as a resulting tarfile system image under $.bz2 in /daily/handset/images/meego-handset-armv7l-beagle/meego-handset-armv7l-beagle-daily. Extract it img The resulting image can be mounted via loopbak and the contents then rsync'ed to your rootfs SD the card partition. $ mkdir ./image $ sudo tar xvj mount --strip-components=2 -f o loop ./daily/handset/images/meego-handset-armv7l-beagle/meego-handset-armv7l-beagle-daily-fs.tarimg .bz2 /image $ sudo rsync -aHx --progress -C -delete ./image/* /media/rootfs

== Install kernel and kernel modules ==

$ cp arch/arm/boot/uImage /media/boot

$ sudo make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/media/rootfs

 

== Install SGX/GLES libraries ==

 

Download helper scripts from

 

$ bzr branch lp:~beagleboard-kernel/+junk/2.6-stable

$ cd 2.6-stable

 

Since the SGX drivers are partially TI closed source, you'll have to register and download the file OMAP35x_Graphics_SDK_setuplinux_3_01_00_06.bin from [http://software-dl.ti.com/dsps/dsps_public_sw/sdo_sb/targetcontent/gfxsdk/latest/index_FDS.html TI's GFX SDK download page].

$ ./create_sgx_package.sh

 

When finished, uncompress the file GFX_3_01_00_06_libs.tar.gz and copy the files install-SGX.sh and target_libs.tar.gz from this archive to your SD card.

$ tar xzf GFX_3_01_00_06_libs.tar.gz

$ sudo cp install-SGX.sh target_libs.tar.gz /media/rootfs/root
