Building a SATA Boot Image

Follow these steps to build and install a boot image for the Annotator Pro:

1) Optional: Delete the previous build files. You may want to rename this folder instead, so that you can get back to it later.

  rm -fr trunk/buildroot-annotatorpro

2) Optional: Edit the Linux kernel configuration (trunk/linux-kernel/arch/arm/configs/annpro_defconfig).

3) Edit source code as needed.

4) Optional: Set the toolchain path. This is taken care of in some scripts to specify a different toolchain.

  PATH=$PATH:/usr/arm-2009q3/bin/

5) Optional: Export the toolchain path. This is taken care of in some scripts to specify a different toolchain.

  export PATH

6) Run the build script.

  bash build.sh annotatorpro

7) Using gparted, create a bare partition table on new SATA drive (use partition type gpt); make note of drive name (sdX)

8) Change to the install directory.

  cd trunk/install_annotatorpro

9) run one of the install scripts:

  bash install-7825-fast.sh /dev/sdX "text"

or

  bash install-7825-singleSATA.sh /dev/sdX "text"
