Flash Linaro tarball images on USB drive

Note:
Please make sure you specified the right USB drive path you see from the dmesg log for following steps,
or you could erase your hard drive with the wrong parameter.

Insert USB drive into your PC, and flash the image files with the linaro-android-media-create command:

$ linaro-android-media-create --mmc /dev/sdX --image_size 2000M --dev vexpress --system system.tar.bz2 --userdata userdata.tar.bz2 --boot boot.tar.bz2

If you’re using tip of linaro image tools

$ ./linaro-image-tools/linaro-android-media-create --mmc /dev/sdX --image_size 2000M --dev vexpress --system system.tar.bz2 --userdata userdata.tar.bz2 --boot boot.tar.bz2

Configure Juno boot time UEFI configuration

Stop at UEFI prompt and select the Shell item, it will boot up directly for you.

Accessing Source Code

Linaro Android Source Code

Download the Android building script linaro_android_build_cmds.sh for this build
from the list of artifacts listed above, and run it.
This script will help to download the entire source code for both Android and
the kernel and attempt to build it.

Most commonly used options for linaro_android_build_cmds.sh:

$ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -h #To print the script usage
$ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -t #To build from the tip of the branch without overlay
$ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -t -o <overlay> #To build from the tip of the branch with provided overlay
$ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -m <pinned_manifest> -o <overlay> #To reproduce an exact build from pinned manifest
$ ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -t -u <url-aosp-mirror-manifest> #Provide the url to your AOSP mirror manifest

The pinned manifest(pinned-manifest.xml(?) and source manifest(source-manifest.xml) can be found from the list of artifacts

Compiling Linaro Android RootFS+Kernel

The following simple steps download, install and compile a complete Linaro Android distribution

• Download and install Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit or newer (download)
• Download the Android building script for this build from the list of artifacts listed above

• Run the script

Build from the tip of the source:

chmod a+x linaro_android_build_cmds.sh
./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -t  or  ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -t -u <url-aosp-mirror-manifest>

Or reproduce the exactly the same as this buid:

chmod a+x linaro_android_build_cmds.sh
./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -m pinned-manifest.xml or ./linaro_android_build_cmds.sh -m pinned-manifest.xml -u <url-aosp-mirror-manifest>

Installing Android on your board

cd android/out/target/product/juno
sudo linaro-android-media-create --mmc /dev/sdX --dev vexpress --boot boot.tar.bz2 --system system.tar.bz2 --userdata userdata.tar.bz2

Insert the USB drive into your board and reboot it. You must configure UEFI each time you create a new disk image.
