[MinnowBoard] [edk2] [EDK2][MNW2]: Problem building MinnowMAX firmware 0.77 on Windows.

[Gerard Bucas]

OK – figured it out – sorry to waste your time!

 

(required an “export” instead of an “import” in TortoiseSVN – counter-intuitive to me!)

Thanks David,

 

Stupid question:

Which Windows “tool” can import from that “svn” webpage? 

 

I tried TortoiseSVN but it asks for username/pwd and my sourceforge credentials don’t work on it. So can’t seem to be able to import anything from that link (that’s why I eventually landed up using http://sourceforge.net/projects/edk2/files/UDK2014_Releases/UDK2014.SP1.P1/UDK2014.SP1.P1.Complete.MyWorkSpace.zip/download  - which has those two directories missing).

 

Its probably me but any help would be appreciated!

 

Regards

 

Gerard

Please follow following two steps of the release note to get Vlv2DeviceRefCodePkg and Vlv2TbltDevicePkg from https://svn.code.sf.net/p/edk2/code/branches/UDK2014.SP1.     

 

 

2. Create the following folders (sub-directories) from your workspace (e.g. "C:\MyWorkspace"):

 

       BaseTools               

       Conf                    

       CryptoPkg               

       EdkCompatibilityPkg     

       EdkShellBinPkg          

       FatBinPkg               

       IntelFrameworkModulePkg 

       IntelFrameworkPkg       

       MdeModulePkg            

       MdePkg                  

       NetworkPkg              

       PcAtChipsetPkg          

       PerformancePkg          

       SecurityPkg             

       ShellBinPkg             

       ShellPkg                

       SourceLevelDebugPkg     

       UefiCpuPkg

       Vlv2DeviceRefCodePkg

       Vlv2TbltDevicePkg    

       

3. Obtain the following BSD-licensed source code packages and files from the tianocore.org (hosted by sourceforge.net)

   SVN (SubVersion) repository and place them into their respective folders (subdirectories) created in

   step 2 (above):  

   

   "Revision 16679 of UDK2014.SP1 branch https://svn.code.sf.net/p/edk2/code/branches/UDK2014.SP1 "

Additional Info relating to my earlier questions:

 

I populated the “MyWorkspace” directories/files from:

http://www.tianocore.org/udk2014/ 

which provides this link for downloading:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/edk2/files/UDK2014_Releases/UDK2014.SP1.P1/UDK2014.SP1.P1.Complete.MyWorkSpace.zip/download 

 

The above “UDK2014.SP1.P1.Complete.MyWorkSpace.zip” file does not seem to include the two required:

-          MyWorkspace/Vlv2TbltDevicePkg
and

-          MyWorkspace/ Vlv2DeviceRefCodePkg 

 

directories/contents.

Hi guys,

 

I am trying to build the minnowMAX firmware (latest v0.77) and have followed the instructions found here:

http://firmware.intel.com/sites/default/files/MinnowBoard_MAX_Rev.077-ReleaseNotes.txt

 

However, I got stuck on the last step, which says:

 

1) To build a release version:

      Open a command prompt window (make certain you "Run as Administrator"). 

      Type the command: "cd C:\MyWorkspace\Vlv2TbltDevicePkg" 

      Type the command "Build_IFWI.bat MNW2 Release" to build a release version.

 

The problem is that the directory “Vlv2TbltDevicePkg” in MyWorkspace is empty and there is no reference to it in any of the previous steps. So my question is:

 

1.     How do I get/create the contents for this directory: Vlv2TbltDevicePkg 
(& this one Vlv2DeviceRefCodePkg )?

2.     Will it correctly setup/run the build scripts when using Visual Studio Community (instead of the very old Visual Studio 2008 which is the recommended default)?

3.     Any other tips & tricks?

 

Thanks
