Overview

Gentoo armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi optimalized for Openmoko (-Os -march=armv4t -mtune=arm920t) on 2008.0/arm profile (glibc based, sane bootstrapable toolchain)
(embedded uclibc/arm profile armv4tl-softfloat-linux-uclibcgnueabi in plans)

Needed things

Gentoo stage: http://torindel.sezamkowa.net/openmoko/armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/~arm/
Portage snapshot: look for mirror on: http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors2.xml and get snapshots/portage-DATE.tar.bz2
Kernel and modules
Any working Openmoko distro

Installation

Partition your sd card if needed (don`t make swap partitions, ensure card isn't mounted):

 fdisk /dev/mmcblk0

Make ext2 or ext3 filesystem:

 mkfs.ext2 /dev/mmcblk0p1

Mount partition:

 mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /media/card

Copy stage and portage from host to moko (e.g. on localhost):

 scp stage3-armv4tl-*.tar.bz2 portage-*.tar.bz2 root@openmoko:/media/card

Unpack stage and portage:

 tar -xjpf /media/card/stage3-armv4tl-*.tar.bz2 -C /media/card
 tar -xjpf /media/card/portage-*.tar.bz2 -C /media/card/usr

Cleanup removing tar.bz2:

 rm /media/card/stage3-armv4tl-*.tar.bz2 /media/card/portage-*.tar.bz2

Chroot:

 chroot /media/card /bin/bash

Update chroot environment:

 source /etc/profile; env-update

Set timezone:

 cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/YOURZONE /etc/localtime

Set hostname:

 nano /etc/conf.d/hostname

Remove console font changing (small is beautiful ;]):

 nano /etc/conf.d/consolefont (hash consolefont= line)

Setup fstab:

 nano /etc/fstab

Edit inittab (hash out c3, c4, c5, c6, s0, s1 lines):

 nano /etc/inittab

Setup usb networking:

 ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.usb0
 echo "config_usb0=( \"192.168.0.202 netmask 255.255.255.0\" )" > /etc/conf.d/net
 echo "routes_usb0=\"default via 192.168.0.200\"" >> /etc/conf.d/net
 echo "nameserver 192.168.0.200" > /etc/resolv.conf

Enable sshd:

 rc-update add sshd default

Change root password:

 passwd

Leave chroot:

 exit

Copy kernel.
Copy modules.
Setup uboot for booting from sd card.
Reboot.
Setup/emerge rest of the system.

Emerging binary packages

Binary package sites

http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/embedded/openmoko/armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/

http://torindel.sezamkowa.net/openmoko/armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/~arm/packages/All

Add PORTAGE_BINHOST to make.conf

e.g.

echo "PORTAGE_BINHOST=\"http://torindel.sezamkowa.net/openmoko/armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/~arm/packages/All\"" >> /etc/make.conf

Update environment

e.g.

source /etc/profiles; env-update

Setup install mask if you don't want compiler headers/docs etc (mask headers only if you'll be always using binary packages)

e.g.

export INSTALL_MASK="*.h"

Emerge packages with -kG

e.g.

emerge -kG syslog-ng

Binary package wishlist

As i'll be adding some packages to ftp above you might want to ask for some package here: GentooPackageWishList
