Trying Linaro Jellybean Android on TI’s Panda board

Overview

This post takes you through trying a prebuilt build on a TI Panda and then reproducing that exact build from source.

Try the Prebuilt Build

Go to Jellybean Panda build 20 and go through the instructions on the page to try the prebuilt build.

Now Build

Use these commands:


wget http://snapshots.linaro.org/android/~linaro-android/panda-jb-gcc47-tilt-stable-blob/20/linaro_android_build_cmds.sh
chmod +x linaro_android_build_cmds.sh
wget http://snapshots.linaro.org/android/~linaro-android/panda-jb-gcc47-tilt-stable-blob/20/pinned-manifest.xml
./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -m /path/to/pinned-manifest.xml

Now use the commands listed in Jellybean Panda build 20 but use the system.tar.bz2, boot.tar.bz2 and userdata.tar.bz2 you just made in out/target/product/pandaboard/

Enjoy!

    Hey Jim!

    Sorry for the slowness of my response.

    To save space we remove older tip builds from the system. Anything without a -release tag is a ti[p build and is typically removed after about a month.

    You can always sync the last built instance of the build you’re looking at. Right now the build you’re trying to sync is on build 109, so this works:

    wget http://snapshots.linaro.org/android/~linaro-android/panda-jb-gcc47-tilt-stable-blob/109/linaro_android_build_cmds.sh

    Alternatively, you can use a release build when is always up-to-date. The last release of the baseline you’re interested in is:

    https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android/panda-jb-gcc47-tilt-stable-blob-12.10-release/
