How to get started building your own binaries for the Android OS on your OMAP Platform | |||||||||

- Step 2
This page describes how to build a bootloader for Android. The bootloader consists of uboot (u-boot.bin) and x-loader (MLO). There are 2 steps involved. First, get the source code. Second, build the source code.

[edit] Get Source
To continue with getting started on Android building your own binaries, look below under your specific platform. A typical set of commands used to get the bootloader source are:
mkdir -p <your directory path>/mydroid cd <your directory path>/mydroid export $MYDROID=`pwd` repo init -u <Repo> -b <commit> repo sync
OR
mkdir -p <your directory path>/mydroid cd <your directory path>/mydroid export $MYDROID=`pwd` git checkout <Repo> -b <local-branch-name-here> <Branch> git checkout <Commit>

[U-BOOT]
Repo : git://gitorious.org/pandaboard/u-boot.git Branch : omap4_panda Config : omap4430panda_config
[X-LOADER]
Repo : git://gitorious.org/pandaboard/x-loader.git Branch : omap4_panda Config : omap4430panda_config
[edit] Blaze
Bootloader is part of the Android manifest for Blaze/OMAP4430. Refer to "Android Environment - Source versions and Manifest" in the main page to obtain the entire Android source code (This is the recommended method since it includes bootloader and filesystem). Once that is done, return to building uboot below.
If you are looking to download the bootloader separately, details are:
[U-BOOT]

[edit] Building uboot
[edit] PandaBoard
$ cd $MYDROID/u-boot $ make distclean $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- omap4430panda_config $ make $ cp -Rfp ./tools/mkimage $HOME/bin
[edit] Blaze
For Eclair OMAP 4430/Blaze, (reference release tags from L27.x)
$ cd $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/u-boot $ make distclean $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- omap4430sdp_config $ make $ cp -Rfp ./tools/mkimage $HOME/bin
[edit] Zoom 3
For Eclair OMAP 3630 releases starting L25.INC2.5
$ cd $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/u-boot $ make distclean $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- omap3630zoom3_config $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- $ cp $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/u-boot/tools/mkimage ~/bin/
Note (for latest release at least): By default the toolchain (arm-none-linux-gnueabi-) is not in your path, you either have to sym link it to /usr/bin (ie ln -s $HOME/mydroid/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.3.1/bin/arm-eabi-gcc /usr/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -- and do that for each tool), or, more easily, specify the full path in the CROSS_COMPILE flag (ie CROSS_COMPILE=$HOME/mydroid/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.3.1/bin/arm-eabi-) for each of the above make commands.
[edit] Zoom 2
For OMAP 3430 releases starting L25.10
$ cd $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/u-boot $ make distclean $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- omap3430zoom2_config $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- $ cp $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/u-boot/tools/mkimage ~/bin/
Note (for latest release at least): By default the toolchain (arm-none-linux-gnueabi-) is not in your path, you either have to sym link it to /usr/bin (ie ln -s $HOME/mydroid/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.3.1/bin/arm-eabi-gcc /usr/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -- and do that for each tool), or, more easily, specify the full path in the CROSS_COMPILE flag (ie CROSS_COMPILE=$HOME/mydroid/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.3.1/bin/arm-eabi-) for each of the above make commands.
[edit] Others
For releases prior to L25.10 release
$ cd $MYDROID/bootloader/u-boot $ make distclean $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- omap3430zoom2_config $ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- $ cp $MYDROID/bootable/bootloader/u-boot/tools/mkimage ~/bin/
Note: Configuration option varies by platform. Above is an example for building Zoom2. Change "omap3430zoom2_config" to "omap3430labrador_config" for Zoom1(LDP) or "omap3430sdp_config" to enable a build for SDP or "omap3630zoom3_config" for Zoom3.
Note: If you get "cmd_voltage.c:27: error: inline function 'voltage_info' cannot be declared weak" try an older GCC (CSL 2008q3-72 seems ok)
