= Introduction =

This article is for '''Arago Project 1.8 - Poky 13.0.y Fido''' branch.<br>
All the steps are with Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS, in others is possible you need change a little things.<br> It is interesting read [[How to use the Yocto Project to develop Embedded Linux]] article previously.<br> 

= Build Platform Setup Environment  =

{{Message/Information Message|message= '''The instructions below are only for  IGEP PROCESSOR BOARDS based on AM335x processor.'''}} 

Install the following dependencies for Ubuntu 12.04 and Ubuntu 14.04 (64b version)
<pre>sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib build-essential chrpath socat libsdl1.2-dev
sudo apt-get install autoconf libtool libglib2.0-dev libarchive-dev
sudo apt-get install python-git xterm sed cvs subversion coreutils texi2html
sudo apt-get install docbook-utils python-pysqlite2 help2man make gcc g++ desktop-file-utils libgl1-mesa-dev
sudo apt-get install libglu1-mesa-dev mercurial automake groff curl lzop asciidoc u-boot-tools dos2unix mtd-utils</pre>

= Install toolchain =

<pre>wget --no-check-certificate http://releases.linaro.org/archive/15.05/components/toolchain/binaries/arm-linux-gnueabihf/gcc-linaro-4.9-2015.05-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz
sudo tar -xvf gcc-linaro-4.9-2015.05-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.xz -C /opt </pre>

= Set Arago =

In order to build an image with BSP support for a given release, you need to follow the next steps.

Configure terminal as dash:

<pre> sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash
(Select "no" when prompted)</pre>

Download tisdk:

<pre>git clone git://arago-project.org/git/projects/oe-layersetup.git tisdk
cd tisdk</pre>

Download layer config:
<pre>wget http://downloads.isee.biz/pub/releases/oe-layertool-setup_config/igep-sdk-02.00.00.00-config.txt </pre>
Set layers:
<pre>./oe-layertool-setup.sh -f igep-sdk-02.00.00.00-config.txt </pre>
Set ENV variables:
<pre>cd build
. conf/setenv 
export PATH=/opt/gcc-linaro-4.9-2015.05-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin:$PATH
</pre>

= Compile image =

To compile image use the following command:

<pre> MACHINE=<MACHINE> bitbake <IMAGE> </pre>

Where <MACHINE> could be:
* igep0033-RB11
* igep0033-RB30
* igep0034

ISEE <IMAGE> supported are:
* isee-ti-image-dev: A development image based on tisdk-rootfs-image recipe. Suitable to test all TI AM335x capabilities.
* demo-ti-image-minimal: A minimal demo image based on arago-console-image recipe. Suitable to be flashed into 128 MB internnal memory.
* isee-ti-image-test: A minimal image intended to be used for [http://git.isee.biz/?p=pub/scm/igep_qa.git;a=summary igep_qa] and flash filesystems to internal NAND Flash memory.

At the end of a successful build, you should have an image that you could use for boot device
from flash or a micro-SD card or you can create the installable firmware (demo-ti-image-minimal) using:

<pre>MACHINE=<MACHINE> bitbake do-release-firmware</pre>

Generate Poky SDK compiler for isee-ti-image-dev and  demo-ti-image-minimal:

<pre>MACHINE=<MACHINE> bitbake meta-toolchain-arago-tisdk</pre>
