Setup host computer

Setup Ubuntu host computer

Install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64bit. You should have about 80 Gbytes of free disk space for building images.

Go to http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ and download 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop image: http://releases.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-14.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso for the installation.

Setup Advantech Android BSP In RISC Platform

The BSP contains cross toolchain, linux kernel source code, u-boot source code, Android root file system and some scripts. It is consist of three top folders: "android", "image", "scripts".

 prebuilt/gcc/linux-x86/host/   : cross toolchain
 bootable/bootloader/uboot-imx/ : u-boot source code
 kernel_imx/                    : linux kernel source code
 device
 fsl/ : Android device related settings
 fsl-proprietary/               : modules & firmware(e.g. WiFi, GPU)
 hardware/imx/                  : HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer)
 image/                         : all built images located in
 scripts/                       : to simplify building process

Naming Rule

It is consist of the model name followed by "AB" plus version number, for example, 4410ABV2080 which "4410" stands for RSB-4410, "AB" is acronym of Android BSP, "V2080" stands for Version 2.080; other model names list below:

 "3420" stands for ROM-3420
 "5420" stands for ROM-5420
 "7420" stands for ROM-7420
 "DS31" stands for UBC-DS31
 "U220" stands for UBC-220

Setup build path

To build u-boot

To create/continue a build environment

Perform the following command in terminal console

$ make -j4 bootloader

The two files, u-boot_crc.bin & u-boot_crc.bin.crc, will be located in directory, ./tmp/deploy/images/${MC}.

To build linux kernel

To create/continue a build environment

Perform the following command in terminal console

to do build bootimage

$ make -j4 bootimage

to do build systemimage

$ make -j4 systemimage

Initialize build environmant

Build Android image script
