I am new to OE. I am trying to build OE from the git repository, for Freescale i.MX28, following the instructions here:

http://www.imxdev.org/wiki/index.php?title=All_Boards_OpenEmbedded

I am having a build failure trying to fetch elftosb-10.12.01.tar.gz. The command I run is:

 bitbake bootstrap-image

The error is pasted at the bottom of this message.

Is bootstrap-image still a valid build target?

What needs to be fixed to build elftosb?

I am trying to build from git 'master' branch, commit b50fde72d5789b3185f9a7c64924280bb063cfad. Building on Ubuntu 11.10.

Regards,
Craig McQueen

The problem you are facing is because those files are not available.

There are a couple of options, you can 

a. modify the elftosb_10.12.01.bb recipe and make sure that it points to a valid location.

or 

b. if you already have a downloaded source package elftosb-10.12.01.tar.gz, from somewhere in your iMX SDK, modify the recipe so that it looks for a file, rather than a URL.

Best regards,

Elvis Dowson

If you're starting a new project may be it's better to base it on
oe-core. Have a look here:

change the SRC_URI to this one in the elftosb recipe:

SRC_URI = "http://repository.timesys.com/buildsources/e/elftosb/elftosb-${PV}/elftosb-${PV}.tar.gz"
