OpenEmbedded Torrent

From Openmoko

The following links are in place to provide developers with a pre-compiled OpenEmbedded build environment tailored to their workstation's architecture.  In order to use BitTorrent files, it is necessary to install a BitTorrent client. 

The reason that these torrents are provided, is to decrease the amount of time it takes for system developers to have a fully functional build environment, allowing them to focus on more important tasks. 

NOTE: A pre-compiled OE environment is several gigabytes in size.  For example, the compressed environment could be 3GB, but it might require another 16 GB to uncompress.  Please ensure that you have enough disk space before continuing. 

Once the environment is downloaded via BitTorrent, just follow these instructions, and go!  See the list below for available torrents.

FAQ

If every end-user had the same username and the same OE_HOME, then the cross-toolchain would be completely portable.  However, that is generally not the case.  The toolchain has compiled-in paths that contain system libraries and headers.  If those paths change, then there is a very high probability that gremlins might attack you, your loved ones, and your town, possibly ruining Christmas for everyone.
