[Tobias Pflug]

hey..

I just wanted to say hi to everyone on this list. I recently started
working with OpenEmbedded. I'm using it at work for an embedded solution
using the compulab boards. So far I am mostly enjoying the "openembedded
experience"..

The documenation could be a bit better and less scattered over different
places but well.. noone loves writing documentation. But I have received
good and friendly support from the #oe irc channel.

The next point will perhaps not make me many friends on this list, but
I am not exactly too fond of monotone. I for one would prefer if
openembedded used git. Mostly because it is *so* much faster. My machine
is fairly decent I would say and still the usage experience isn't that
great. (`mtn status` = zZzz :)

anyway, I look forward to using OE more and hopefully also contributing
to it.

best regards,
Tobi

So would I (and not only for performance reasons), but I doubt it's 
going to happen anytime soon ;-)

Hi,

If someone can host my mtn2git script and a git tree we can have a  
git mirror almost immediately. But yes I think there are some good  
reasons to stay with monotone as primary system.

Does such script exist? I think the closest to it is 'tailor', which is
far from perfection. I was thinking about writing one when I get time...

And of course, provided you have conversion utility and hosting space
you get a git miror in no time ;-)

Hello everyone,
i'm a new member of this list.

Although i have no experience, i would like to learn howto create
linux distro for embedded systems.

I would like to ask some basic questions:
- where do you start to create a linux distro?
- i need an embedded device without any os or firmware?

Thanks,
Best regards.

Hi, and welcome.

The way we started was by looking at the angstrom distribution. That is
available as a oe-core layer, and you can easily start by compiling that
one.
After that, we started taking stuff from angstrom, into our own
repository. Starting with configurations, and changing them as we
wanted. And when we had our own, angstrom based, distro up and running,
we started adding what we needed. But start looking at angstrom, and
understand how oe works, at least that is my tip.

Welcome!

You want to create a bsp for a new board or use something that is already
in?
