bootloader Last commit for the flash bootloader. The bootloader build works properly either flashed or unflashed. 2008-11-12 05:11:18 +00:00

firmware Telechips NAND: much improved read reliability on D2/iAudio7. More work is required for M200/DAX, but an improvement is evident nonetheless. LPT buffers are now buffer_alloc'd after determining the required size, so most targets should also see a healthy reduction in RAM usage. 2008-11-16 15:44:49 +00:00
flash Apply FS#9500. This adds a storage_*() abstraction to replace ata_*(). To do that, it also introduces sd_*, nand_*, and mmc_*. 2008-11-01 16:14:28 +00:00
fonts revert my previous commit since 5.1.20080820 was already committed in r18342 with some useless glyphs removed 2008-10-20 10:39:07 +00:00

manual The HTML manual requires features.txt to be processed first, so add this as prerequisite. Fixes building if no pdf has been built before. 2008-11-16 12:42:08 +00:00
rbutil Make autodetection show a busy cursor (hourglass) during detection to improve visual feedback. 2008-11-16 11:00:27 +00:00
tools Add more driver stubs to make the Fuze and e200v2 main builds compile; Correct the memory definition for the Fuze (8MB) 2008-11-11 14:46:13 +00:00
uisimulator m200v4: make buttons work again (added a small delay). make m200 keymap better. Add button mappings for the sim. Remove some config defines temporary to make building work again. 2008-11-14 21:57:43 +00:00

wps Font cleanup step 3 - The Big Shuffle: Renamed all fonts to a consistent naming scheme that allows easy selection of alternatives based on size, as discussed on IRC. Adjusted themes in SVN and Makefile for the sysfont. ** Attention **: Clean up your /.rockbox/fonts folder before installing the new release, and then install a new font pack as well. Adjust font names in your custom .cfg files. A reference table can be found in fonts/README. 2008-09-02 22:31:11 +00:00

Build Your Own Rockbox

1. Check out 'rockbox' from SVN (or extract a downloaded archive).

   $ svn co svn://svn.rockbox.org/rockbox/trunk rockbox

     or

   $ tar xjf rockbox.tar.bz2

2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
   and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.

   $ cd rockbox
   $ mkdir build
   $ cd build

3. Make sure you have sh/arm/m68k-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
   that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
   a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
   can be acquired with the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
   source, or will have been included if you've installed one of the
   toolchains or development environments provided at http://www.rockbox.org/

   $ which sh-elf-gcc
   $ which perl

4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
   target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
   few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
   gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
   Archos.

   $ ../tools/configure

5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.

6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
   directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.

   $ make
   $ make zip

7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
   *smile*.

If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:

   $ mkdir build-fmrecorder
   $ cd build-fmrecorder
   $ ../tools/configure

   $ mkdir build-player
   $ cd build-player
   $ ../tools/configure
