Hi @abobow
you mentioned earlier ; “Yes. To save time, you could also just create the .ipk package and install it on a regular Bsp 2.8 (rocko) using opkg install wvdial.”
You can type bitbake wvdial and bitbake gammu, to build the packages only. The created packages ( .ipk ) should be under deploy folder as you wrote earlier: i build earlier “bitbake -k console-tdx-image” and saw wvdial and gammu in archieves under the deploy directory. thats understood and ok.
Once you got these packages, then you need to copy them to SoM and install these packages using opkg install wvdial command. For this a regular Bsp (For ex. 2.8b6) should be already installed on the SoM.
I think you mean I could get the regular linux sources from toradex git repo, do my kernel config, modify device tree and then get packages for wvdial and gammu and install them on my target. right?
The kernel sources are only for customising the kernel and don’t contain any application.
if so please elaborate how to build and get those packages on my target system? regards
You don’t build the packages on the SoM, but do the cross compilation using Yocto Environment.
I hope this answers your questions. I understand that at the beginning there is lot of new things you will have to handle, but you will get familiar with all this after following step by step our developer articles.
Let me know, if you have any other questions.
Best regards,
Jaski
