Hi!! Well i successfully created the image of root_qtopia by using mkyaffs2image . Now when i followed the same procedure for my application it gave error... #mkyaffs2image xyz.bin xyz.img It gave some error which i don't remember right now... Please, can somebody guide me?? I want to create an imgae of my own application which i want to port on friendly arm device.
making image of a user application using mkyaffs2image
ok!!! but is it the right method to create an image of user made application by using mkyaffs2image???
If you want to build your application into the rootfs then you make your root image after you place it in, say /usr/bin or whatever. Sounds like you are trying to make two separate images. You could always add your application after you have make the root file system by just copying the executable into the target. HTH
Thanks buddy!!! But then my question is...don't i need to cross compile the application using qmake of qtopia2.2.0 to make it run on friendly arm, before porting it???
You cross compile your application, place the executable in a directory in root, cd to it and type in the filename. If you want to be able to click on an icon on the Qtopia desktop see this for an explanation: http://equallybad.blogspot.com/2010/02/project-how-to-setup-default-dev-...
