Compile Busybox for IMX6DL

martincarra — Thu, 03 Aug 2017 20:56:25 GMT

Hello all,

I've downloaded, installed and built YOCTO to compile busybox 1.24.2

I have ran the following steps:

1.- MACHINE=imx6dlsabresd DISTRO=poky source ./setup-environment base

2.- bitbake meta-toolchain

3.- executed fslc-wayland-glibc-x86_64-meta-toolchain-armv7at2hf-neon-toolchain-2.2.2.sh to install the SDK

4.- executed environment-setup-armv7at2hf-neon-fslc-linux-gnueabi from the console in which I am running the make of the busybox.

Hello,

Martín.

Probably you are initializing in a wrong way your DISTRO. Try with the following configuration.

$ DISTRO=fsl-imx-wayland MACHINE=imx6dlsabresd source fsl-setup-release.sh -b <build dir>

However, I highly recommend you to use the yocto compiler. Here you can see how to compile Busybox.

Yocto busybox menuconfig

Furthermore, here you can find more information about yocto.

I hope this can help you,

Best Regards,

Diego.
