so seems you want to build images in a "cross" way, and also use lucid repositories? For using lucid as source: linaro officially started on top of maverick; in general there shouldn't be a problem to produce rootfs etc. from lucid repositories using linaro tools; however, it was never tested and might require adjustments to seeds and backport of our overlay packages and maybe a few other things that don't come to my mind atm. For building linaro rootfs and hwpack in a cross fashion: * hwpacks should be buildable on your x86 machine without anything like that. * rootfs using live-build should work in a full system emulation qemu similarly to natively building rootfs. * rootfs... using live-build on x86 with qemu-arm-static chroot's might have some problems here and there, but unless you include packages like mono - which has problems with the host /proc fs - those should be fixable. * for now safest way of building linaro rootfs is still native. Also check with james_w, salgado or mwhudson (IRC nicks) about the status of our cross-image building efforts. -- - Alexander _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
