I have Technologic's Eclipse environment up and working. However, my
task is not to build an app (already did that without Eclipse), but to
build a new kernel with a single setting changed. My boss refuses to
pay Technologic for the hours it will take them to do this, so I get
to attempt it instead.
Normally, I would have just built the source directly on my target,
but as delivered, there isn't enough space on the board for the
source, let alone the build output. So we obtained the Eclipse
package (since it will also ease maintenance of the app we already
built -- nano isn't fun at all) and hoped it could be used to build a
new kernel. I think I know where to download the current TS kernel
sources, but I'm not sure how to install them so that I may build with
Eclipse, or if that is even possible.
So, it is possible?
If it is, are there any documents describing how to set this up and do
it? If so, where, if not, has anyone done it who will share the
procedure?
If it is not, then I guess I'll be trying to talk my boss into getting
a SATA drive to mount at /usr/src/linux to hold the kernel source and
build directly on the TS-7800. Or will that not work either?
FWIW, I've built custom kernels for other embedded (x86) boards and
I'm not finding much commonality between what I learned doing that and
anything I've read so far about doing the same for my TS-7800.
Probably because in the past I could always install the same base
kernel and build directly under it, which would only match directly
building on the TS-7800.
