[surendradhobale]

Hi,

     I am using T1040 RDB board. I have fsl-full-rootfs filesystem and mounted. able to boot the board. I am trying to do sysbench for the board. But "sysbench" package itself not availabl in the provided rootfs. How i can add this package externally so that i can use the usage of "sysbench"?

I have downloaded the  debian package for the sysbench and its dependencies, but " dpkg" itseld not available on this rootfs.?

What kind of approach i need to follow to update the packages in the rootfs?

Thanks in advance !!

Regards,

Surendra

Hi All,

     Not getting any reply.

I am able to install sysbench package in the "fsl-full-rootfs". Following important steps i did to install the sysbech package.

1) Download sysbench package for the ppc architecture.

2) Download all dependencies of same.

3) untar ipk or rpm packages.

4) Keep in the respective folders of the file system.

It will able to run the tools.

I have tried to build the FS with open embedded yocto project provided by freescale. But sysbench bitbake not available in the repo.

I am providing this info, if any other also tried for same will help.

Thanks.
