Tool Chain
Before attempting the steps below please follow the directions for downloading and installing the appropriate tool chain here.
Build steps
Create a directory to hold the source tree
mkdir <CI20 Android Directory>
Enter new directory
cd <CI20 Android Directory>
Create repo and fetch contents
# Nougat repo init -u git://github.com/MIPS/manifests.git -b dev-mips-nougat-mr1 -m ci20-ng-7.1.1_r28.m1.xml repo sync # Marshmallow repo init -u git://github.com/MIPS/manifests.git -b dev-mips-marshmallow -m ci20-mm-6.0.0_r1.m1.xml repo sync # Lollipop repo init -u git://github.com/MIPS/manifests.git -b dev-mips-lollipop-mr1 -m ci20-lp-5.1.1_r6.m1.xml repo sync # KitKat repo init -u git://github.com/MIPS/manifests.git -b dev-mips-kitkat -m ci20-kk-4.4.2_r3.m1.xml repo sync
Set up environment variables needed to build image (Note. this takes 50Gb of space and quite a bit of time)
export TOP=`pwd` source build/envsetup.sh lunch aosp_ci20-userdebug export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-oracle
Run "make"
# UBIFS make -j <N> # You may need to adjust the number depending on your build system
# EXT4 make WITH_EXT4=true -j <N> # You may need to adjust the number depending on your build system
Insert an SD card to be written into the host system then run the following commands
cd device/imgtec/ci20/sdcardinstaller/
# UBIFS ./mksdcard /dev/sdX # The name of the SD card device may vary across systems
# EXT4 ./mksdcard-ext4 /dev/sdX
If you are using UBIFS the SD card can now be used to flash the CI20 NAND.
If you are using EXT4, the SD image is used as the boot image:
* Place the JP3 jumper to position 2-3, * Plug in the SD card and power on the board,
