Improved instructions for Debian
whitequark opened this issue · comments
The provided quick start instructions do not quite work on Debian. Notably:
- Debian doesn't have the
universe
repository. It hascontrib
instead. - It's necessary to specify the distro version explicitly when adding a PPA, that is:
add-apt-repository 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/hvr/ghc/ubuntu trusty main'
. - Debian does not provide
gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
(it does providegcc-arm-none-eabi
). You'd need to figure some other way (I already had it installed locally so I wouldn't know which.) - Debian does not provide
phablet-tools
but it appears that the only thing needed from there isrepo
, which it does provide.
I have built and ran both ARM and x86 versions.
Thanks. More detailed instructions for setting up your system are provided on the developers wiki: https://wiki.sel4.systems/Getting%20started#Setting_up_your_machine
Please feel free to improve the docs for debian there :).
