MeeGo is an open source, Linux project which brings together the Moblin project, headed up by Intel, and Maemo, by Nokia, into a single open source activity. MeeGo integrates the experience and skills of two significant development ecosystems, versed in communications and computing technologies. The MeeGo project believes these two pillars form the technical foundations for next generation platforms and usages in the mobile and device platforms space.

== 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 [http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~beagleboard-kernel/%2Bjunk/2.6-stable/annotate/head:/create_sgx_package.sh create_sgx_package.sh]
 
Then run
$ chmod +x create_sgx_package.sh
$ ./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 ==
You can install the Codesourcery arm toolchain. Just download that package, unpack it somewhere and add the bin directory contained in this into your path environment variable and build the kernel.
To generate the uImage file at the end of the build process, the tool 'uboot-mkimage' is needed: $ sudo apt-get install uboot-mkimage  Clone the kernel GIT repository from git.myigepigep.com es and switch to latest development 2.6.33.y branch
$ git clone git://git.igep.es/pub/scm/linux-omap-2.6.git
$ cd linux-omap-2.6
$ sudo make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/media/rootfs
== Install SGX/GLES libraries =See also =*[[How to get the Angstrom distribution]]Download helper scripts from*[[How to get the Ubuntu distribution]]*[[How to get the Linaro distribution]] $ 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 *[[How to register and download get 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 pageAndroid distribution]]. $ ./create_sgx_package.sh When finished, uncompress *[[How to get 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/rootPoky Linux distribution]]
