Guide: How to Create a DM500 Dreambox Image

[louis1170]

Hi LraiZer,

I have followed you suggestion and i tried to create the image using the new and updated way. Unfortunately i still have the same problem.

[ -x /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/cdk/root-enigma-squashfs-local.sh ] && KERNEL=2.6 KERNELVERSION=2.6.9 LIBC=glibc BOXTYPE=dreambox BOXMODEL=dm500 /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/cdk/root-enigma-squashfs-local.sh /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/root/cdkflash /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/cdk || true

/bin/bash: /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/root/cdk/bin/mkcramfs-e: No such file or directory
make: *** [/home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/root/cdkflash/boot-cramfs.img] Error 127

Please advise.

Thanks you in advance
Louis

This is the line you need to deal with:

/bin/bash: /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/root/cdk/bin/mkcramfs-e: No such file or directory

To me it looks like it is still trying to execute mkcramfs-e rather than mkcramfs(space)-e

Hi LraiZer,

I have followed you suggestion and i tried to create the image using the new and updated way. Unfortunately i still have the same problem.

Please advise.

Thanks you in advance
Louis

first create a folder /home/louis3785/dreambox/

enter commands:

make distclean

./autogen.sh

./configure --with-boxtype=dreambox --with-boxmodel=dm500 --prefix=/home/louis3785/dreambox --with-cvsdir=/home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs --enable-kernel26 --with-defaultlocale=english --enable-dreambox-serial-console

make flash-enigma-squashfs

your compiled image can now be found in /home/louis3785/dreambox/cdkflash/ folder and you will also find your "mkcramfs-e" binary in /home/louis3785/dreambox/cdk/bin/ folder

Hi Laizer and Gastor and thank you for your quick replies.
At first i have followed Laizer suggestion and when i run the command make distclean i got the below error

00
make .deps
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/cdk'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `Makefile-archive', needed by `config.status'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/cdk'
make: *** [distclean-local] Error 2

Furthermore i followed Gastor suggestion. So i erased everything and i started from scratch. Also i altered the makefile to execute mkcramfs(space)-e instead of mkcramfs-e as suggested. Unfortunately again i got the below error.

[ -x /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/cdk/root-enigma-squashfs-local.sh ] && KERNEL=2.6 KERNELVERSION=2.6.9 LIBC=glibc BOXTYPE=dreambox BOXMODEL=dm500 /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/cdk/root-enigma-squashfs-local.sh /home/louis3785/dreambox/cdkflash /home/louis3785/tuxbox-cvs/cdk || true
/usr/bin/install -c linux-2.6.9/arch/ppc/boot/images/zImage.treeboot /home/louis3785/dreambox/cdkflash/boot/root/platform/kernel/os
mv /home/louis3785/dreambox/cdkflash/boot/root/platform/kernel/bild .
/home/louis3785/dreambox/cdk/bin/mkcramfs -e -eb /home/louis3785/dreambox/cdkflash/boot /home/louis3785/dreambox/cdkflash/boot-cramfs.img
/bin/bash: /home/louis3785/dreambox/cdk/bin/mkcramfs: No such file or directory
make: *** [/home/louis3785/dreambox/cdkflash/boot-cramfs.img] Error 127

i do not know why this is happening i have also check through the synaptic package manager if i have all the pre-requizete packages install and everything looks fine. Do you have any more suggestions??

Thank you in advance,
Louis

you dont need to run that make clean distribution command if you have started again from scratch. just go straight to the .autogen.sh command, make distclean was just removing all stuff from your failed builds with that command.

and i can suggest you stop removing the space in mkcramfs-e, its supposed to be like that!

Hi LraiZer,

I have already tried that and i had the same error. However i have good news today. Finally i manage to create my image file. The problem was the ubuntu version that i had on my machine. I had ubuntu 64-bit installed and i had the error mention in my previous posts. i have unistall them and i have installed the 32 bit version and the image was created.

Thanks everyone for your help!!!!

Hello Guys

I manage to create my image and as i have seen the version is beta 2. is it possible to create the image with a later version i.e 4.20. Moreover is it possible to include the blue panel in my image?? If yes can you please explain me how.

Thank you in advance
Louis

First, I would like to thank everyone who comes here anyway to help others. my question is ... I'm trying to install Mgcamd on my compiled image! but, when I run the command. ./Mgcamd the following message appears. / Mgcamd: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.0.9.7: can not open shared object file: No such file or directory. the question is: where (folder) can i include this file before compiling the image?

thank you !

thank you !

enable libcrypto in kernal compile it will go in /lib or /var_init/lib

much smaller if you compile in image

#!/bin/sh
make install libcrypto
