Problem with installing QorIQ-SDK-V1.4-SOURCE-20130625-yocto

[victorgomez]

Hi folks,I am running into a weird error when installing the QorIQ-SDK-V1.4-SOURCE-20130625-yocto.iso package.

I am installing it on my Fedora 20. And I did this:

1) Mounted the ISO

2) Executed the installation: /mnt/qoriq_yocto_1.4_source/install

3) CDed into the installation directory: <install_path>/qoriq-linux/fsc-sdk-1.4/QorIQ-SDK-V1.4-20130625-yocto

Up to here, everything worked like a charm, getting this message:

Done. You're ready to go with Yocto build now

250.207u 56.173s 34:07.18 14.9% 0+0k 3378300+5841776io 1363pf+0w

Now, I do the following:

source ./fsl-setup-poky -m p4080ds -j 12 -t 12 -l

And I get this error:

{local@host:55} source ./fsl-setup-poky -m p4080ds -j 12 -t 12 -l

Badly placed ()'s.

I get a "Badly placed ()'s error. I checked the fsl-setup-poky file, and I didn't see any misplaced () or any bug that was easy to see.

Do you have any ideas?

ANy help is much appreciated!
Thank you!
Best,
Victor.

We recommend using Ununtu 12.04 for SDK building.

The following command sequence is recommended for SDK installing.

1. 1. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard patch vim-common sed wget subversion git-core coreutils libbonobo2-common unzip texi2html texinfo libsdl1.2-dev docbook-utils gawk python-pysqlite2 diffstat make gcc build-essential xz-utils g++ desktop-file-utils chrpath libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev autoconf automake groff libtool xterm libncurses5-dev cvs tofrodos

    if it is 64-bit operating system, run the following command also:

    sudo apt-get install ia32-libs lib32ncurses5

1. 2.  sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash

then choose "No" and you're done. )

1. 3. install SDK for your core (500V2 or 5500). For example the QorIQ Linux SDK v1.4 e500mc Yocto Cache Binary ISO.
2. 4. install SDK source
3. 5. sudo ./scripts/host-prepare.sh
4. 6. usually Linux recommends also run the following command: sudo usr/sbin/visudo

1. 7.  $ source ./fsl-setup-poky <-m machine> [-j threads] [-t tasks] [-l]

      * <-m machine> is mandatory, [-j threads], [-t tasks], [-h] and [-l] are optional

      * [-j threads]: the number of threads to have the make program itself spawn during the compilation stage. Set -j equal to 1.5 * (number of CPU cores), rounded up to the nearest integer.

      * [-t tasks]: the maximum number of BitBake tasks that can be issued in parallel. Set -t equal to the number of CPU CORES that you have.

      * [-l]: lite mode. To help conserve disk space, deletes the building directory once the package is built.

      * [-h]: help. If given, other options will be omitted.

For example: source ./fsl-setup-poky -m p2020ds

    $ bitbake <task-name>

Test similar command sequence on the Fedora 20.

Hi Pavel

Thanks for the detailed information. Much appreciated! Unfortunately I still get the same error, and I have followed all your steps. I will try now to move to an Ubuntu system, see if that makes a difference.

Thanks!

Victor.
