hours to build on a mid-hi range desktop (4-6 cores, 8-12 GiB
RAM) also depending on your Internet connection speed (all
sources are fetched from the network). Nearly 20GiB of disk
space is required for the build.
The resulting files (kernel, devicetree and u-boot binaries,
plus .tar.gz root file system) will then be available inside
build/tmp/deploy/images/bora
.
3.4.6.4 Build additional packages
To build additional packages the user must first enter the
directory where the bora-bsp-init-env.sh is placed and source it:
:~$ cd ~/belk
:~/belk$ source bora-bsp-init-env.sh build
And then can run any of the bitbake commands:
:~/belk/build$ bitbake memtester
The resulting packages (the default format is ipk) can be found
inside
build/tmp/deploy/ipk
.

ConfgID
ConfigID is a new feature of DAVE Embedded Systems
products. It's main purpose is providing an automatic
mechanism for the identification of the product model and
configuration.
With ConfigID, we aim at:
●
completing the hardware configuration information
that the software can't normally auto-detect (i.e. RAM
chip version,...), implementing a dedicated reliable
detect procedure
●
when required, overriding the auto-detected hardware
configuration information
When implemented, this mechanism allows for:
●
initializing in the proper way the hardware platform,
based on the specific features and parameters of the
product, using a common software base (eg: a typical
case is the SDRAM controller parameters, which must
