[beaglebone] ubuntu make error No such file or directory

Hi, I can I solve the following error :

make: *** /lib/modules/3.2.0-psp1/build: No such file or directory.
Stop.
make: *** [modules] Error 2

Regards

Did you install the kernel headers?

It's not installed by default to save space..

http://rcn-ee.net/deb/oneiric-armel/v3.2.0-psp1/linux-headers-3.2.0-psp1_1.0oneiric_armel.deb

Although, you'll probally still have to symlink it back to the build
dir.. mainline 'make deb-pkg' isn't perfect for generating
linux-headers..

Hi, i think that something went wrong because i get again the error
for a make

make[1]: Entering directory `/lib/modules/3.2.0-psp1/build'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `modules'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/lib/modules/3.2.0-psp1/build'
make: *** [modules] Error 2

I done
dpkg --install linux-headers-3.2.0-psp1_1.0oneiric_armel.deb

Was that the correct way to install headers to /lib/modules/3.2.0-psp1/
build ?

Regards

MariaM · February 28, 2012, 4:40am

I also done ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-psp1/ /lib/modules/
3.2.0-psp1/build
to get the symlink

but now the error is other like :

make ARCH=armv7l CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/3.2.0-psp1/build M=/
home/ubuntu/rtl8188C_8192C_8192D_usb_linux_v3.3.2_3192.20120103
modules

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-psp1'

Any help is welcome

ARCH=arm... not 'armv7l'...

Regards,

MariaM · February 28, 2012, 5:40am

Tanks, my mistake
I'm a new to linux..

I have to add in the Makefile the following

CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_BEAGLE = y

ifeq ($(CONFIG_PLATFORM_ARM_BEAGLE), y)
EXTRA_CFLAGS += -DCONFIG_LITTLE_ENDIAN
ARCH := arm
CROSS_COMPILE := arm-linux-gnueabi-
KVER := 3.2.0-psp1
KSRC ?= /usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-psp1/
endif

but now facing another problem:

Any ideia?

RobertCNelson · February 28, 2012, 3:28pm

Sorry, that's yet, another annoying thing that happens for only ARM
devices with "linux-headers"..

Since it needs something from the mach dir, your going to just have to
use the full source..

Download v3.2, apply patch and copy defconfig from:
http://rcn-ee.net/deb/oneiric-armel/v3.2.0-psp1/

Regards,

MariaM · February 28, 2012, 3:37pm

Sorry, can u explain better the steps to do

I have to download patch-3.2-psp1.diff.gz
And how to apply patch?

And copy defconfig to where?

Tanks

RobertCNelson · February 28, 2012, 3:47pm

ahh patch...

download: http://rcn-ee.net/deb/oneiric-armel/v3.2.0-psp1/patch-3.2-psp1.diff.gz
download: http://rcn-ee.net/deb/oneiric-armel/v3.2.0-psp1/defconfig

cd /mainline/kernel/v3.2/source/

apply patch to kernel source: zcat
/dir/downloaded/patch-3.2-psp1.diff.gz | patch -p1
copy defconfig: cp /dir/downloaded/defconfig .config

Tweak build symlink to new kernel source folder..

Regards,

MariaM · February 28, 2012, 4:20pm

I'm miss something..

directory /mainline/kernel/v3.2/source/ is the same has /lib/
modules/3.2.0-psp1/build/ or /usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-
psp1 ?
They are allready symlinked because I've done ln -s /usr/src/linux-
headers-3.2.0-psp1/ /lib/modules/3.2.0-psp1/build

root@omap:/lib/modules/3.2.0-psp1/build# ls

root@omap:/lib/modules/3.2.0-psp1/build# zcat patch-3.2-psp1.diff.gz

patch -p1

can't find file to patch at input line 5
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:

RobertCNelson · February 28, 2012, 4:42pm

Yeap, the full "v3.2" kernel source, mentioned previously...

you can get it via:

wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/linux-3.2.tar.bz2

Nah, you've just never done it before. .

Some of the confusion would be gone, if the upsteam "rtlwifi" driver
in the "3.2-psp1" worked across all devices.. I have one of these
small wifi modules that works fine with no modification to the current
demo image.. While another refuses to work.. Of course the both work
fine on an x86 machine.. For now, i'd really recommend you use any
other chipset, i've had very good luck with arl9170 based devices on
the bone..

Tanks a lot, finally I got the 8192cu.ko

root@omap:/usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-psp1/linux-3.2# make oldconfig
&& make prepare && make modules_prepare

This had solved my last problem

Everything went ok but for curiosity why I got a warning like:
