Compile Guide

1. Download cross complie environment: mips-elf.tar.gz
2. Extra mips-elf.tar.gz to /usr/local/comp/

   tar xpf  mips-elf.tar.gz -C /
   

3. Get PMON's source code

   git clone git://dev.lemote.com/pmon.git
   

4. Checkout an appropriate tag
5. Set Path. e.g.

   export PATH=/usr/local/comp/mips-elf/gcc-2.95.3/bin/:$PATH
   

6. Build pmoncfg tool

   cd /path/to/pmon_dir
   cd tools/pmoncfg
   make
   cp pmoncfg /usr/bin
   

7. Run pmoncfg, configure Bonito (pmoncfg will generate some helper files, in the directory: /path/to/pmon_dir/Targets/dir_corresponding_to_your_target_hardware/complie)

   cd /path/to/pmon_dir
   cd Targets/dir_corresponding_to_your_target_hardware/conf
   pmoncfg Bonito
   

   Notes: Bonito2F7inch is also used by 8.9inch notebook
8. Complie PMON

   cd /path/to/pmon_dir
   cd zloader.dir_corresponding_to_your_target_hardware
   make tgt=rom
   

   Notes:
   • Still, zloader.2f7inch is also used by 8.9inch notebook
   • The make tgt=? has three options:
     • rom: yield a gzrom.bin, then burn it to the materbord's rom (this can be done in the old pmon's console)
     • ram: yield a gzram, then load it & boot in the old pmon's console. In this way, you can test your complied pmon.
     • sim: we haven't used this.
