[edit] Archlinux on ARM:

We moved here: http://hiciu.rootnode.net/arch/(DEAD LINK). This page is probably outdated.

[edit] Preparations

Needed packages:

  • sbox2
  • qemu
  • crosstool-ng (for building the toolchain)

[edit] Toolchain for cross-compiling 

yaourt -S crosstool-ng-svn
  • Make a directory for building the toolchain 
mkdir ~/toolchain-build
cd ~/toolchain-build
  • Copy the configuration for Arch Cross Toolchain 
wget http://shelli.fi/~bane/.config(DEAD LINK)
  • Now you can change the settings with command 
ct-ng menuconfig
  • And build it with 
ct-ng build

If you used default settings, you should now have the toolchain in the directory "arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi" in your home directory

[edit] sbox2

homepage: http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/sbox2

"Scratchbox 2 is a cross-compilation engine". 

wget http://people.freedesktop.org/~lle/sbox2-releases/sbox2-1.99.0.23.tar.bz2
tar xjf sbox2-1.99.0.23.tar.bz2
cd sbox2-1.99.0.23
./autogen.sh
./configure && make && sudo make install

[edit] qemu 

pacman -Sy qemu

(should be 0.10, for 0.9 read this: http://qemu-arm-eabi.wiki.sourceforge.net/)

[edit] Setting up Scratchbox buildroot

If you changed the paths from toolchain configuration, you need to change these commands too 

cp -R ~/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/sys-root/ ~/arch-arm-buildroot
cd ~/arch-arm-buildroot
sb2-init -c "/usr/bin/qemu-arm" arm ~/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi-gcc

[edit] Preparing Arch Build System

follow http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ABS_-_The_Arch_Build_System

After all copy build tree to buildroot: 

cp -R /var/abs/ ~/arch-arm-buildroot

Now customize your makepkg.conf: 

cp /etc/makepkg.conf ~/.makepkg.conf

Edit file ~/.makepkg.conf, change: 

CARCH="armv4t"
CHOST="arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi"

CFLAGS="-march=armv4t -mtune=arm920t -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="-march=armv4t -mtune=arm920t -O2 -pipe"

[edit] Compiling packages

[edit] All packages in repository: 

cd ~/arch-arm-buildroot
mkdir pkgs
sb2
makeworld --clean --ignorearch --syncdeps --rmdeps --noconfirm pkgs/core abs/core/

[edit] One package, from PKGBUILD: 

cd ~/arch-arm-buildroot
sb2
cd mypackage
makepkg -A

(where "-A" means ignore architecture)

[edit] Installing missing dependencies

(well.. You have to build them first :P). 

cd ~/arch-arm-buildroot
tar xzf pkgs/$REPO/$PACKAGE
#maybe pacman --root=~/arch-arm-buildroot -U pkgs/$REPO/$PACKAGE or something..

[edit] Synchronizing your repo

todo: How we will share? rsync / svn / git / some kind of web gui? What is better for big binary files?

hiciu's repository browser: http://hiciu.rootnode.net/arch-arm/

[edit] Progress

  • Part I: Make packages from base and base-devel groups with scratchbox: 101 / 171
    • install them on qemu-arm machine: 0 / 1
  • Part II: rebuild all packages from "core" repository using Arch on qemu-arm machine 0 / 171
  • Part III: make qemu image with Arch on armv4t (for compiling, packaging, etc.), install Arch on GTA02: 0 / 2

[edit] People

Who's involved?

  • YourNameHere!
  • hiciu - responsible for making qemu image with Arch on arm
  • Beini - Most likely helping with PKGBUILDs, installer script, etc. whatever I'm capable of doing ;)

[edit] Ideas

  • Installer script could be just `pacman -Sy base --root /media/card --dbpath /media/card/... --config arm.conf`

Archlinux on ARM:

Preparations

You need:

sbox2

"Scratchbox 2 is a cross-compilation engine". 

wget http://people.freedesktop.org/~lle/sbox2-releases/sbox2-1.99.0.23.tar.bz2
tar xjf sbox2-1.99.0.23.tar.bz2

./autogen.sh
./configure && make && sudo make install

(optional) melas

"Melas is an uncomplicated build and packaging tool", something similar to Arch Build System. This will be used to build toolchain and qemu with eabi patch. 

mkdir ~/melas
