[Shalle]

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

This error confused me to at first, but actually there is a binary called "mkcramsfs-e".

Its a 32-bit binary, and if you are running a 64-bit linux, you get the error "No such file or directory" when you try to run it.

I installed a 32-bit linux version on a spare harddrive, but maybe there is some way to run 32-bit binaries on 64-bit linux too.

Hello!
I'm trying to compile openpli image for DM500, but there are some errors. Could you please help?

make: *** [.sqlite] Error 2

What am I doing wrong?

I got this error to, its seems to be something with libtool and dash if i remember the thread correctly.

Running

export CONFIG_SHELL="/bin/bash"

fixed it for me.

[rafiek]

I have the same problem.
I downloaded binutils-2.15.91.0.2.tar.bz2 placed in on /tuxbox-cvs/cdk and run make dreamboximage_root and got the same error.

I also want to update libssl0.9.7 to libssl0.9.8
but first I have to solve the error with binutils


Can someone please help us on the right directon.


thank you.
Rafiek

I to have the same problem!

Any one know what to do?



//Nicklas

[oolloo]

can someone please upload all needed files to a thebox account or dropbox then we could all start on the same page the rapidshare is un reliable.

Thanks

PS of course once uploaded you would post just one link to the file folder and we could all get every file

[pepinw]

I have read this thread. I am able to fully compile image(s) using the documentation here.

However, my git checkout does not support the make dreamboximage_root profile, it now has these flash-all-* profiles.

like flash-all-cramfs-1x, etc etc.

My main problem is that it produces an 8mb flash image, which is 3mb too big for my dm500s. I have been trying to cut down the images folder to get it to fit.

Second, I'm not sure why it makes .img1x and .img2x versions of the file, and which one I can flash. Trust me, I've tried to flash both, but because of the size difference, neither will be accepted by dreamup.

Any ideas what I can do to get the image to the < 5mb level (comparable to the OpenPLi dm500s build -- which does the same problems for me, too)

Best,
