AW: [Scratchbox-users] Basic queries about scratchbox

[Siegfried Vogl]

Hello Harsha,

 

I'm using scratchbox with SuSE 10.0, before with 9.3 and I've tried it with
SuSE 10.1.

It principally works. Scratchbox give you the great advantage of being able
to 

compile your applications in a pseudo original environment. Especially if
you use

autotools, it becomes very easy to get applications cross-compiled.

I'm using it with a "selfmade" toolchain for an arm SA110. I've built the
toolchain

with crosstools-0.40. There are articles in the web how to do that.

With my own built toolchain I use the arm-emu in scratchbox and it works
fine.

I don't exactly know the arm1136, but I believe it is one of the sa1100
family.

Therefore it should work.

You have to plan enough time to learn scratchbox. And if you intend to build
a whole

distribution, you will also need a couple of time to get some experience
with the 

gar system. That is my personal experience. But at least it is worth
investing the time.

 

Start with the binary distribution. It works from scratch also on
SuSE-Systems.

Perhaps it would be better to have it on a debian system, because the debian

packaging system is used very often. I decided not to use debian, because I
have no experience 

with it.

 

Hope, that helps,

 

Siegfried

Hi,
I am new to scratch box.
I have some basic doubts regarding scratch box.
Is it possible to use scratchbox on SUSE or Fedora or on Redhat?
I already have crosstools and kernel built for my ARM1136 Target .Is it
possible to  use these tools instead of  arm-tools from scratchbox.
I have searched in scratchbox website and in google also for above queries
but i couldn't get clear information.
Can  any body helps me ?

Thanks In advance.

Regards,
Harsha
