Make sure date/hwclock report the correct time and date on your system, because parts of the build process download from HTTPS servers and wrong time or date can cause connections to be dropped during negotiation.
Побудова з джерельного коду
Фактична розробка/тестування завжди виконується безпосередньо за допомогою cbmk
, і це також
стосується збирання з джерельного коду. Ось кілька інструкцій, щоб
почати:
canoeboot включає сценарій, який автоматично встановлює apt-get залежності в Ubuntu 20.04:
sudo ./mk dependencies ubuntu2004
Окремі сценарії також існують:
sudo ./mk dependencies debian
sudo ./mk dependencies arch
sudo ./mk dependencies void
Check: config/dependencies/
for list of supported distros.
Технічно, будь-який дистрибутив Linux може бути використано для побудови canoeboot. Однак, вам потрібно буде написано свій власний сценарій для встановлення залежностей побудови.
Debian Trixie/Sid
Debian Trixie, the testing release as of 3 January 2025, and Debian Sid,
provide gnat
and gcc
as you expect, but gnat
resolves to gnat-13
and
installs gcc-13
as a dependency, while gcc
resolves to gcc-14
and other
toolchain components correspond to this version.
The GCC/GNAT versions need to match during build time, so Canoeboot's build
system hacks the PATH
environmental variable, setting up symlinks, matching
GNAT to GCC or GNAT to GCC. When you run ./mk dependencies debian
, you get
GNAT 13 and GCC 14. This seems to make most boards compile; in our testing, the
KGPE-D16 board failed to compile in this configuration. This PATH hack is only
done for compiling the coreboot crossgcc toolchain, and nothing else; after that,
coreboot's toolchain is used.
GNAT is used by coreboot, because some of the Intel graphics devices are
initialised natively, with code written in Ada spark (called libgfxinit
).
When updating from Debian stable to Debian Trixie(testing) or Sid, you should
also check for orphaned packages, using aptitude search '~o'
. Do this,
removing what was leftover from the old release, and make sure to re-run the
Debian dependencies script, but do it like this:
./mk dependencies debian --reinstall
For better reliability, you should, after running the dependencies script,
remove gnat
and install gnat-14
instead, which is available on this day
of 3 December 2025, but currently marked experimental. When you install
GNAT 14, GNAT 13 is removed but gnat
(in PATH
) still won't resolve to
anything. Canoeboot still accomodates this, detecting and matching the GCC
and GNAT versions, which would in this instance match version 14 between them,
so that gnat
and gcc
are both in PATH at build time, resolving to v14.x.
When we tested with this configuration, the KGPE-D16 images also compiled.
NOTE: Ubuntu 24.10 also has the issue described above. Some other distros may also have it, if they're based on Debian Testing/Sid or Ubuntu 24.10.
MIPS cross compiler
Canoeboot has support for the Sony PlayStation (PS1/PSX), based on the PCSX-Redux Open BIOS. If you're doing a full release build, and/or specifically building the PSX BIOS, you need a MIPS cross compiler.
Arch-based systems have a mipsel cross compiler available from AUR, and most Debian-based systems have a mipsel cross compiler in apt; for these, the normal dependencies installation command will provide them. We know Void Linux and Fedora don't have a MIPS compiler, for instance.
If your distro doesn't have the MIPS compiler available, the PlayStation page provides instructions for manual installation; please do this in addition to the normal dependencies.
Next, build ROM images
В якості результату, ви тепер можете (після встановлення правильних залежностей побудови) виконати лише одну команду, з свіжого Git clone, для побудови образів ROM:
./mk -b coreboot
або навіть побудувати конкретні образи ROM, такі як:
./mk -b coreboot x60
or get a list of supported build targets:
./mk -b coreboot list
Якщо ви бажаєте побудувати корисні навантаження, можете зробити це. Наприклад:
./mk -b grub
./mk -b seabios
./mk -b u-boot
Попередні кроки буде виконано автоматично. Однак, ви можете досі виконати окремі частини системи побудови власноруч, якщо виберете. Це може бути вигідно, коли ви робите зміни, та бажаєте протестувати конкретну частину cbmk.
