Build Your Own Rockbox
1. Check out 'rockbox' from CVS (or possibly from a downloaded archive). You
may possibly want to check out 'rockbox-devel' instead, since that includes
the simulator code (for trying out things on host before making target
tests).
If you do want to play with the simulator, read UISIMULATOR.
2. Build the tools by running 'make' in the tools/ directory.
3. Create your own build directory, preferably in the same directory as the
firmware/ and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be
put.
4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
Archos.
5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.
6. Make sure you have sh-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure that you
have 'perl' in your PATH too.
7. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.
8. Copy the archos.mod or ajbrec.ajz file to your archos, reboot it and
*smile*. Recent Rockbox versions need no reboots, just PLAY a new rockbox
version and that'll be loaded and replace the currently running version.
Whenever the tools/configure script gets updated, you can make your makefile
updated too by running 'tools/configure update'
If you want to build for more than one target, just create a new build
directory and create a setup for another target combination in there.
Questions anyone? Take them to the mailing list. We'll be happy to help you
out!
