Mer on Raspberry Pi
This page details the steps required to bring up a development environment which can be used to create a basic Mer image.
The hardware adatation is maintained in the project CE:Adaptation:RaspberryPi
Supported
- Boot
- Wired networking
Nt supported
- GFX
- Video
- Accelerated X.Org
- Accelerated Qt
- Audio
- GStreamer
- Qt 5.0
- Qt 4.8
Install Mer SDK
Using the instructions at http://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Platform_SDK#Mer_platform_SDK install Mer SDK on your host Linux system. The SDK has been designed to not rely on the host system so you can use your favourite distro.
Get an account on the community OBS server, ping lbt on #mer freenode IRC channel.
edit .oscrc to set server to api.pub.meego.com and set user and password
To test the installation follow the instructions for building the SDK image.
Building a Mer Core Image
Here we use the SDK to build an image which can be written to an sdcard which will include bootloader, kernel and a base filesystem which boots X and starts qmlviewer.
Get kickstart file
curl -k -O https://github.com/snowcap-electronics/kickstarts/raw/master/rpi/mer-rpi.ks
To work around a mic issue zypper in the following package to the SDK
sudo zypper in syslinux-extlinux
Use the mic tool to create the image using the kickstart file
sudo mic create raw mer-rpi.ks -o . --pkgmgr=yum --arch=armv6l
Once the image has been produced write to your sdcard (you may need to use sudo below if groups are not properly set):
dd of=/dev/sdX if=mer-rpi-mmcblk0p.raw bs=4M
Place in RaspberryPi and boot.
TODO
- Add: Host SDK Development using gcc
- Add: QtCreator Instructions
