Hi, Guys,

I was trying to kick start my BlackFin uCLinux proj.

and I followed the instruction in the pdf document come with the 533-Stamp board.

when trying to compile uCLinux,

I got error msg as follow

[root@localhost uClinux-dist]# make xconfig

config/mkconfig > config.in

make -C /home/dreamcase/Works/remoteminal/OS_boot/uClinux-dist/config/scripts tkparse

chmod 755 config.tk

make: wish: Command not found

make: *** [xconfig] Error 127

what is the 'wish' command here? how to solve this?  Is there any problem with the makefile?

you cant use TCL/TK unless you actually install the packages on your development system

please read the documentation:

Hi, Mike,

I hv installed a few packets that might be missing previously.

And it compiled at first, then a source file error came in. here's the snap-shot.

I tried to fix the conflict definition of 'current_menu', and more errors appeared.

Should I continue fixing them or do I still missing sth here?

from your output:

make ARCH=bfinnommu CROSS_COMPILE=bfin-elf- -C linux-2.6.x xconfig

you're clearly not using the latest release (or anything even close to resembling recent).  download 2008R1.5 and try again.

another problem, as expected.

when it came to 'Kernel/Library/Defaults Selection' tab,

for the 'Libc' selection, it says 'Libc is None', unlike before in the old version, which was 'uCLibc'.

Is it ok leave it as 'Libc is None'?

Rui:

Yes - leave the libc setting to none - it is part of the toolchain, not the uClinux-dist now.

you selected the wrong C library in the toplevel config.  really you should upgrade to 2008R1.5 and then it wouldnt be possible to hit this error as we've disabled the code.

Hi, Mike,

2008R1.5 sounds fine, except one problem.

the uClinux-dist is '2008R1.5-RC3', while the toolchain I downloaded all labled '-toolchain-08r1.5-14.i386.rpm',.

the '-RC3' and '-08R1.5-RC14' doesn't seem tally.

it could just be a confidence problem.

but do they match each other?

yes, it compiles now.

thanks, guys.

I will keep you guys posted on my progress.

I made my own BlackFin board.

BF533+Spartan IIIE 1600K, boot  up controlled by a silicon lab MCU.

the front-end is to interface with IF input, output is to a 10/100-BaseT ethernet, alternatively it also goes to a video interface to a display daughter card, which was made seperately.

Hardware seems ok, I did a few test c code to test peripherals. Now comes to the OS stage.

Beginer, don't know take how long.
