[Q] mka bacon - What it does? - Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh

I was having problem to compile Cyanogen for Milestone. I've got a error with 'bacon', the make command said me he cant find bacon.
Well, after many hours and search i removed the command 'bacon' and left only 'mka' from envsetup.sh and now it is working....
can some one tell me for what is used this 'bacon' on mka command?
thx for help!

well, i think bacon command appear after you use 'brunch' command, actually brunch command process two steps,1). configure compilation profile 2).make
the final package format is zip after your successful compiling

Except now with the OnePlus One, bacon also refers to that device.
So to build for the OPO I type "brunch bacon"

Nano editor for Android

If you don't know what this is, then you don't need to know!
I successfully compiled Nano to run on Android!
http://android.modaco.com/content/software/291983/nano-editor-for-android/
It will run perfectly on any ROM that has terminfo set up, if your ROM doesn't, you may need to do this before running nano:
Code:
su
export TERMINFO=/etc/terminfo
export TERM=linux
Any problems, holler! I'll be putting this in my next Hero pack too...
P
That's cool!
Definitely will give it a try. Use nano every day on my ubuntu system. It would be nice to see that familiar item on my phone . Screen would be pretty wild as well. Screen's another one of those utilities that is hard to explain but easy to show
I'd like to get rsync working on my phone as well since I use it for backups all the time on my desktop now. Think it would be really handy to have a gnu-utils package that people could add.
What owner permissions should I set for it? I get a Permission Denied error on CyanogenMod 4.0.4.
EDIT: Nevermind, forgot to run chmod +x on it.
sweet! I was looking for this about a week ago. glad someone did it. THANKS!
I've mailed you concerning this. I've been through hell trying to compile that *****, hope you are willing to help out. So far I've compiled bash4.0 and busybox 1.15.1 with no problems, but im stuck on nano2.0.9. Anyway check the mail, hope you can help! And congrats for pulling it off hehe.
wops, doublepost.
guys, i wanna learn abt nano for ndroid. how to make it run in android mobile?
i'm using ra-ion1.6.1 donut. already push nano into /system/xbin and /system/bin. but how to make it run? and how to use command in ms-dos?
su
export TERMINFO=/etc/terminfo
export TERM=linux
i dun understand this.
i'm currently using vista.
do i need linux os to do anythg?
how to enable syntax highlighting???
I am currently using nano taken from here http://android.modaco.com/content/software/291983/nano-editor-for-android/ on my G1 (SuperD 1.9.3).
I really want to enable syntax highlighting, and I went through this guide:
http://www.technotizie.it/frame/74510/nano-syntax-highlighting-how-to-enable-syntax-highlighting-in-nano-text-editor
I installed nano binary into /system/xbin and gave it executable permissions.
I created a /system/home dir and created a .nanorc file as stated here:
http://wiki.linuxhelp.net/index.php/Nano_Syntax_Highlighting#Alt_C.2FC.2B.2B.2Fh
I also set up a $HOME var, with value = /system/home
nano starts up but doesn't highlight my .cpp syntax.
what am I missing???
Thanks,
Genesio
Anyone have the terminfo directory saved off by chance? Seems to be missing from my htc evo stock 2.2 rom.
Edit: And naturally five seconds after posting I find it. See androidforums.com/evo-4g-all-things-root/124506-guide-full-bash-shell-nano-tab-completion-color-over-ssh.html
Hi all,
i've got a problem with my nano...
The "enter" button just do an LF, so I do not know how to give the "ok" for saving file,exiting, etc ... any help ?

I second this... I even have screen on my .bash_rc. It is pretty convenient!
I made it run, but in another note, I have always thought the terms' screen size is quite small.
Nevertheless, nice utility!
Hi, I have a problem with nano..
when I try execute them, it writes
Code:
Error opening terminal: linux.
What can i do?

[TUTORIAL] The Step-By-Step guide to build Cyanogenmod7 for the LG Optimus 2X

aMpeX proudly presents:
The Step-By-Step guide for building CM7
for the Optimus 2X​
Disclaimer:
I'm taking no responsibility for any damage that might occur to your phone or your PC
This guide illustrates how to setup an UBUNTU 11.04 equipped PC to build CM7 from source
It does not provide any support beyond that operating system, so if you insist on using other
Linux distributions, either adapt the guide yourself or look elsewhere.
Moreover I'm not providing any support for any problems that might occur during the course
of this guide, if they are not introduced by faults within the guide itself. I will only
troubleshoot the activities that this guide is based upon and won't be able to help with your
general linux problems. Feedback however is greatly appreciated.
Reposting this on other forums:
Feel free to post this guide on other forums. I'd like to be given credit though. Thanks
I am new to this myself, but I thought I'd share my findings after successfully building my first kang.
News & changelog:
v0.92 2011/06/01 Fix:
Added "change directory" before init repository (thanks to peewster)
v0.91 2011/05/31 Fix:
Fixed PATH exports (thanks to bhanvadia)
v0.9 2011/05/31 Initial release:
Still much formatting to be done, typos possible. Leave me some feedback if you encounter them.
Alright, so you want to build your own CM7 KANG's ?
Step 0: The starting point + info
When you start this guide, I assume that you just installed your Ubuntu 11.04 copy to your PC and set up all the drivers to your hearts content.
All commands are supplied, as they would be typed in from a USER ACCOUNT, if you operate from the root account, you will
have to add /home/<yourusername> to the most commands. I suggest, after performing the actions required by root, that you log out by typing
Code:
exit
What you need:
A working copy of Cyanogenmod7 installed on your phone
A PC with Ubuntu 11.04 installed (NOTE: If you're about to install Ubuntu from scratch, use the 64Bit version.
I can build CM7 on a 32Bit OS just fine. But AOSP for example won't build beyond Froyo on 32Bit.
At least 20GB of free space (including space required for the operating system itself)
A considerably fast internet connection (syncing the repo takes everal Gbs)
At least 3 hours of time.
All done? Then let's get started:
Step 1: Install the Java JDK
Go to System → Administration → Synaptics Package Manager
Here, we have to enable the partner repositories.
Go to Settings → Repositories → Other Software → Tick Canonical Partners and hit Close
Now push the „Reload“ button, and use the Search button to find the sun-java6-jdk package
tick the box in front of it and choose „Mark for installation“ and accept the following dialogue.
Click the „Apply“ button. Accept the dialogues, you now have the Java JDK installed.
Step 2: Install the Android SDK
Go here and download this.
Extract the archive to a directory of your choice.
Open a Terminal, navigate to the „tools“ subfolder and run the AVD Manager using ./android
In the new Window hit „Available Packages“ tick the „Android Repository“ and select „Install selected“
Once thats done, close everything up, time for step 3.
Step 3: Set up udev
The description from the CyanogenMod wiki struck me as being a slightly bit overkill, and, while it might be necessary for other devices, for LG phones this works just fine:
Create a new file on your desktop named
Code:
99-android.rules
and fill them with the following content:
Code:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="1004", MODE="0666"
This will enable the debugging for LG devices, if you have time, it won#t hurt to add the other vendors. Just add another line
like above and replace the „1004“ with the appropriate vendor ID from http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/device.html (scroll to the bottom)
Log in as root using
Code:
sudo su
and paste our file to
Code:
/etc/udev/rules.d
using the terminal (cp)
Set permissions for the file using
Code:
chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/99-android.rules
Now would probably be a good time to check if adb is working correctly.
But first, lets update the PATH so we can type „adb“ anywhere on the file system.
Navigate to your user home directory, press CTRL+H to show hidden files and edit the
Code:
.bashrc
file by adding the following
Code:
export PATH="/home/<yourusername>/<path to the android SDK >/platform-tools/:${PATH}"
export PATH="/home/<yourusername>/bin/:${PATH}"
(The 2nd line is necessary for later)
NOTE:This only enable the use of adb everywhere when logged in with your username. When working as root, you'll have
to add a separate line with /home/<yourusername> in front of the path above.
You have to log out and in again for the changes to take effect.
Now check if you can see your phone with
Code:
adb devices
Alright, still awake? Good, because now it gets interesting
Step 4: Install build packages and create directories
Since we already installed the JDK this command differs a bit from the Cyanogen Wiki:
For 32 and 64 Bit
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev pngcrush schedtool
For 64 Bit only
Code:
sudo apt-get install g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.4-multilib g++-4.4-multilib
Now we need 2 directories
Code:
mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/android/system
Almost there ….
Step 5: Install the repository
Now we need our repo binary:
Code:
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
(credits to p.valenta for notifying me of the adress change)
NOTE: You may need to reboot now
Change to your previously created directory:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
Initialize the repository:
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b gingerbread
Enter your Name, eMail adress and select if you want colors or not.
AND NOW THE FINALE
Code:
repo sync -j16
Get yourself a BIG coffee, because this is going to take MUCH MUCH time, because basically you are now checking out all there is to CyanogenMod.
But wait, we're not done yet. Hang on
Step 6: Getting proprietary files for the Optimus 2X
For this step, you need an O2X with a running Cyanogenmod build, so if you're still on stock, this is the time to flash Cyanogenmod for the first time.
Connect your phone to your PC via USB and
navigate to the device tree in your repo folder:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/device/lge/p990/
and run
Code:
./extract-files.sh
This will extract some libs from your device. But sadly, not all of them (build will still fail) but we will fix this now.
Go to
Code:
https://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_lge/tree/gingerbread/p990
and click the download button on the right.
Extract the „p990“ folder located in the subfolder
Code:
/koush-proprietary_vendor_lge-a43238f/
in the archive to
Code:
~/android/system/vendor/lge/
Step 7: Get latest ROMManager
I know I must be annoying the sh** out of you by now, but hang in there
Code:
~/android/system/vendor/cyanogen/get-rommanager
Step 8: BUILD F***ING EVERYTHING
Now this is what you've been waiting for huh?
Sync the repository again:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
repo sync
Build the ROM
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh && brunch p990
Wait
When everything is finished, your KANG will be stored in
Code:
~/android/system/out/target/product/p990/
And THATS IT!
Congratulations, you have just built your own CM7 KANG, don't forget to share it to other nightly testers
Cheers aMpeX

nice guide, really liked it.
too bad there were none when I started making my kangs.
btw: I use mac it is bit different for mac. but nothing its missing.
Here is file you keep on you desktop to make it work without any typing of commands after you setup your computer working directory as per guide by aMpeX.
and check post #2 for making that file executable.....

add "~/android/bin/" to path too so you can "repo sync" from anywhere.
just a suggestion... can upload build.sh file on here to make it easy.
something like
1. for clean and build
2. for repo sync
open file and press your options.
thats what I use...

That's why the guide states its for ubuntu. I found that even the Cyanogenmod Wiki entries don't work completely for the latest ubuntu (with g++ and gcc 4.3 not being available anymore, also hat huge problems with the java jdk at first)
I'll add the additional PATH variables as you suggested. Thank you.

seems to be working, after you chmod+x the sh file that is. My Repo Sync is stuck at 1%, but I doubt its related to your file.

Aside from what you can read on the net, my KANGs build perfectly fine on Ubuntu 32Bit
No reason to not install 64Bit though. I'll add a remark in the first post.
Edit: After some asking and digging, read this:
http://twitter.com/#!/CM_arcee/status/75677847712309249
So while standard Gingerbread cannot be built by 32Bit, the CyanogenMod7 repository can.
is this meant to download a lot of stuff for different phones? mine is downloading a lot of stuff at step 5 and it's taking forever..

It will download files for each and every phones supported by CyanogenMod, thats why its called cyanogen repo, not just P990 repo, but mostly you will use stuff thats required by your phone.
and its suggested to have 15 - 20 GB free, as it takes a lot....
3.5 GB is just "out" folder when it compiles for one device (P990)......
bit of a noob.. done everything..when I try to make the build using build/envsetup.sh i get permission denied
Any help please?
copy/paste the command from the tutorial
there is a leading dot and space before "build

Click to expand...

Thank's for repy.
lge-ril.so is in and generally i flash my build coming from cyano #31 (405) and mcr18 (405)
So...405
Possibly (if you synced the proprietary repository by koush AFTER you ran extract-files.sh) your ROM still includes the lge-ril for 0218.
Try reflashing the ril with the methods provided in this forum.
Other than that, I have no idea what might be causing your problems.
old ril file from koush files do work on 405 baseband too, but you feel better performance with new ril. with old ril you may loose signals sometime.
delete your vendor/lge/p990 folder, and download again from koush's files and put it back there. make sure your directories are in order
example: for lib-ril.so in as below
like ~/android/system/vendor/lge/p990/proprietery/lib/

[GUIDE] How to build CM10.1 (Android 4.2.1) for the Nexus 4 (mako)

This is a guide to build cyanogenmod 10.1 (Android 4.2.1) for Google Nexus 4. This guide is for linux. I will add a guide to build on mac soon, but the basic principle is the same.
Preparation
You need a fully working build environment. If you don't have one running already, you can follow the official android guide on how to set up build environment. Follow the easy steps in the guide.
Check this guide by sylentprofet about how to get the build environment set up.
Your build environment is now set? Good, let's start!
Get the sources
Start by creating a new working directory for CM10.1. You can create this anywhere on your workstation.
Code:
$ mkdir ~/cm10.1
$ cd ~/cm10.1
£ mkdir -p bin
Initialize Repo for Android CM10.1 (Android 4.2.1):
Code:
$ curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
$ repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-10.1
and enter your credentials if needed.
Download the sources:
Code:
$ repo sync
Wait until it is finished. It will take a long time, depending on your internet connection.
Obtain the device build files and proprietary files:
To do this create a file named 'local_manifest.xml" in the .repo folder. This is a hidden folder, so you have to allow your visualisation of hidden files, alternatively run "open .repo" code from terminal. Or you can just run the code below to create the file directly into the folder.
Code:
$ gedit ~/cm10.1/.repo/local_manifest.xml
For Mac you can use:
Code:
$ touch ~/cm10.1/.repo/local_manifest.xml
Paste the following lines into the file:
Code:
<manifest>
<project name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_lge.git" path="vendor/lge" remote="github" revision="cm-10.1"/>
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_mako" path="device/lge/mako" remote="github" revision="cm-10.1"/>
<project name="CyanogenMod/lge-kernel-mako" path="kernel/lge/mako" remote="github" revision="jellybean"/>
</manifest>
Save the file. And rerun the code:
Code:
$ repo sync
Download the necessary pre-builts:
Code:
$ ~/cm10.1/vendor/cm/get-prebuilts
That's all the sources ready now.
Edits for mac only
If you try building now you will get elf errors when the kernel is being compiled. There are different way for fix this, but I'm using this method.
Go to /kernel/lge/mako/scripts/mod/ folder, open the file 'mk_elfconfig.c' and replace
Code:
#include <elf.h>
with
Code:
#include "elf.h"
. Do the same in the file named 'modpost.h'. Next download the attached file named 'elf.h' and copy to the same folder. You are now ready to build.
Building CyanogenMod
Run the following command:
Code:
$ . build/envsetup.sh
and build by running:
Code:
$ brunch mako

Go go the gerritt review site, click on 'cherry-pick' and the copy the code displayed underneath. On terminal direct to the required folder and then paste the code on terminal. So if the change is in 'frameworks_base', do 'cd ~/cm10.1/frameworks/base' and then paste the code.
This might help..

I finally got Cm10.1 to build correctly on my own after days and days of troubleshooting. I wish I would have seen this guide earlier! I am having one slight problem though. Every time I sync, it hangs at 99%(353/356). It always hangs up on the last 3 projects. Everything builds fine. I think it has something to do with prop files. I've tried pulling them from the phone and using "The Muppets" github in local_manifest.xml, but it makes no difference. It hangs every time. I've let it sit for hours and nothing. It was syncing all the way through just fine, but a couple days ago it stopped and hasn't synced properly since. If anyone has any ideas I'd greatly appreciate it! Thanks.
how do i move the file when it is done compiling? it says" The file "cm-10.1-20121222-UNOFFICIAL-mako.zip" cannot be handled because you do not have permissions to read it." Also when I do get it out to desktop with this command " sudo cp -r cm-10.1-20121222-UNOFFICIAL-mako.zip '/home/jarman/Desktop' " I dont have permission to read and write it. Any help?

Why don't you set your build folder in the home directory?
Thanks for the guide was wondering how to make the switch as I was building CM10.
Anyone having luck building in Ubuntu 12.04, Just curious as I am on 10.4 (x64) as advised by Google but that update button is begging me to press it. Also will upgrading from 10.4 to 12.04 destroy my Android/CM build enviroments or will everything remain in tact??
Thanks for the help.

It should work on 12.04, as the cyanogenmod official guides are written for that version of ubuntu. I can't say whether the build environment will remain the same or not.

There are different packages to set up the build environment in 12.04 that are listed on googles site. They work. You can upgrade, but you would have to install the new packages. They also work on 12.10 fyi.
I was wondering if anyone has successfully set up the build environment in Mint 14? The packages for 12.04 won't install. If anyone can help, I would be grateful.

In case anyone is following my upgrade, I upgraded to 12.04 and my Android Working Directory still compiles and builds as well as cm10.1:good:.

@OP - could you do a guide on how to build AOSP rom and adding in features from CM?
Many thanks!

[GUIDE] Learn about Linux/Ubuntu development commands [UPDATED]

Hey guys! This guide is surely gonna help a lot of people who build/compile ROMs, to understand the hidden meaning behind most of the common commands associated with the building stuff.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
SO STARTING WITH THE COMMANDS GENERALLY USED FOR BUILDING DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT:
We type the command sudo a lot of times and it asks for our desktop's password.
What is 'sudo'?
sudo is a Linux command used to execute programs as the root, or "super user." sudo is a shortening of "substitute user do."
One uses sudo when they need to run a command or program as root, but do not wish to log out or switch their entire shell to root privileges (like they could do with the su command).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is 'mkdir'?
The 'mkdir' (make directory) command in the Linux or Ubuntu operating systems and in the PHP scripting language is used to make a new directory.
eg: mkdir -p ~/bin
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is 'cd'?
Besides listing the command "change directory" command "cd" is used.
The cd command, also known as chdir (change directory), is a command-line OS shell command used to change the current working directory in operating systems such as Ubuntu or Linux.
eg: cd ******(folder name)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What does './configure' do?
Typically the configure script when run will check some details about the machine on which the software is going to be installed. This script checks for lots of dependencies on your system. For the particular software to work properly, it may be requiring a lot of things to be existing on your machine already. If any of the major requirements are missing on your system, the configure script would exit and you cannot proceed with the installation, until you get those required things.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is 'make'?
the make command accepts targets as command line arguments. These targets are usually specified in a file named 'Makefile', which also contains the associated action corresponding to the targets.
When the make command is executed for the very first time, it scans the Makefile to find the target (supplied to it) and then reads its dependencies. If these dependencies are targets themselves, it scans the Makefile for these targets and builds their dependencies (if any), and then builds them. Once the main dependencies are build, it then builds the main target (that was passed to the make command).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What does 'sudo apt-get' do?
Now there are a lot of things that are done with the command 'sudo apt-get'. Some common ones are:
'apt-get update' downloads the package lists from the repositories and "updates" them to get information on the newest versions of packages and their dependencies. It will do this for all repositories and PPAs.
'apt-get upgrade' will fetch new versions of packages existing on the machine if APT knows about these new versions by way of apt-get update.
'apt-get install': This option is followed by one or more packages desired for installation. Each package is a package name, not a fully qualified filename.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
MOVING ON TO THE COMMANDS USED FOR COMPILING PROCESS:
What is 'curl'?
'curl' is a client to get documents/files from or send documents to a server, using any of the supported protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, GOPHER, DICT, TELNET, LDAP or FILE). The command is designed to work without user interaction or any kind of interactivity.
eg curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Why do we use 'chmod' command?
In Linux or Ubuntu, 'chmod' changes the permissions for a file; permissions should include a letter designating who gets permissions ('u' for the user, 'g' for the group, 'o' for others, or 'a' for all) followed by a '+' or '-' (to give or take away the permission) followed by the kind of permission ('r' for read access, 'w' for write access, 'x' for execute if the file is a program or script).
eg: chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Why do we use 'export' command?
When you use export, you are adding the variable to the environment variables list of the shell in which the export command was called and all the environment variables of a shell are passed to the child processes.
eg: export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is 'gedit'?
'gedit' is a light-weight text editor. Gedit has all the basic features you come to expect from a simple text editor, but Gedit has a native graphic user interface (GUI). Gedit also has command line arguments available to users to quickly and easily view and edit files from a terminal. Overall, Gedit is an easy to use text editor with utilizing the powerful capabilities of the desktop.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Why is 'repo init -u url -b branch' used?
This would initialize a new local source repository. This will create a new place to hold your local copy of the source tree. “url” should point to a Manifest repository that describes the whole sources. It is a special project with a file (default.xml) that lists all the projects that Android is made of. In the Manifest file, each projects has attributes about: where to place it in the tree, where to download it from (git server), revision that will be used (usually a branch name, tag or commit sha-id).
eg:repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-11.0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is 'repo sync'?
After the repo initialization, this command downloads all the sources to your local directory. The first time you run this command, it will download the sources. Android sources are huge, for example, CM11 (KitKat) sources are approximately 12GiB. So, be prepared: you’ll need space in your hard drive, and time (possibly several hours)-depending on you ISP.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is 'mka'?
This little gem of a command is basically equivalent to a super-charged version of 'make'. Problem is, make is SLOW in its default configuration. It can take hours longer depending on your hardware.So, mka is like a cheetah. What this means is that ALL of your processor is working, not just one small part of it(which is used with 'make' command).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is 'breakfast'?
In order to explain brunch, we have to explain breakfast first. Breakfast is a function used to configure your build. It keeps track of a list of officially-supported devices to build for, and allows you to choose one. You can do this two ways,
1) breakfast [device name]
or
2) breakfast
Now, the first method is a shortcut to your device. If you don't know your device's name, then you can probably choose the second method which would display all the officially supported devices.
Breakfast then goes on to configure your build environment with the correct variables to create your device-specific rom.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Why do we use 'brunch'?
brunch followed by your device's codename is used to tell the system to start building/compiling from the sources.
eg: brunch ****(device codename: eg pico for HTC Explorer)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is 'lunch'?
Lunch is used EXACTLY like breakfast, the only difference being the choices you have to build with it. Using lunch, you can choose non-official or non-standard builds for your device. This includes special debug versions and also allows you to build CyanogenMod for use on the Android Emulator. To build after running lunch, simply issue the command mka.

Nice overview for people new to Linux, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to disagree on your explanation of the sudo command. Contrary to your explanation, the name of the sudo command is actually derived from the su command (sudo homepage), which means: ”substitute user”. When taking this into account the meaning of sudo becomes: ”substitute user do”.
The reason I'm saying this, is because sudo, just like su, can be used to execute commands as/switch to any user present on the system.
Do note that apt-get and dpkg are distro-specific, not Linux-specific. If you're using Ubuntu, Debian or elementary, apt-get is there, but on Fedora you'll find yum, on Arch you've got pacman, on Gentoo you end up with emerge and so on.
is this an example of the real guide?
i mean there are so many more thing you need to explain
1.rm
2.ls
3.pwd
4.cp/mv
5.lunch
6.breakfast(i mean you mention brunch ,without breakfast?)
7.mka
more i can't remember
and all of this i have used while building.

This was a great overview, it did teach me a few things. Just one minor thing, in my Linux class we were taught that su meant 'switch user' and the other meanings were actually wrong. Then sudo would become: 'switch user do'. Which meaning is it then?

I'm pretty sure sudo is something else. Ex: You can do sudo su - to switch to root.
You dont have automatikli sudo rights. The configuration file for sudo is*/etc/sudoers wich u can edit with visudoers.
The distinction between sudo and su is that with sudo, you need to have a user configured in a system wide configuration file (/etc/sudoers) to actually have him use the command and if someone attempts to use it without having permission, a log email will be sent to the email address configured for the root user.
When your account has been configured to allow sudo usage, you can then switch to any user/perform any command as the other user, but you only need to enter your own password when executing a command/switching to another user.
The su command is not really configurable, and only allows you to switch to another user if you enter that user's password.
So while
Code:
sudo -s someuser
and
Code:
su someuser
have the same effect, the sudo version asks for the password of the current user (and fails if the current user has no sudo rights) while the latter asks for the password of someuser.
For more on su and sudo.

[Q] Help on step 7c [TOOLS] Touchpad Toolbox (updated 2015-02-25)

First of all, kudos to jcs for this op. While fairly new at this, I found it very complete. I had to do alot of reading and downloading behind the scenes to get it this far, but so far everything has worked.
As the title suggests, I am stuck on step 7c, in particular where I am trying to run "novacom....certs.sh". I am using ubuntu and had to load "Wine" to get it to recognize the "palmenv.bat" file. So, is there an easy way to run the "nova...." file in ubuntu? Other than finally figuring out how to get and use java in ubuntu, I've been very impressed with that OS.
Here is the error message:
Z:\home\mds\Downloads\WebOS>novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh
File not found.
The "Z" directory was the result of running the "wine cmd" as the directory originally was "C". Initially after running the "wine cmd" command, I ran the "palmenv.bat" and it accepted it. However, I was unable to run the "novacom...certs.sh" file, even though it was in the same location.
PS: I have deleted and added spaces in combinations around "<" in the above as I could not tell for sure the correct way.

Did you fully read post #2, part C of the TPTB thread? You should be able to just unzip the TPTB into a folder, open a terminal session in that folder, and run the .sh file that's there. You may need to run it with sudo; that I don't recall.

Yes thanks. The problem boils down to running a ".bat" file then running a ".sh" file. Using Ubuntu, I have been unable to run the .bat file without "wine", then, in "wine", I have been unable to run the ".sh" file.
In windows 7, I can run the ".bat" file, but unable to run the ".sh" file. This is the final step in jcs's op to do a clean install of webos and this particular step fixes the certificates. Ref here step 7d: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2756314&page=7
Ubuntu command:
sudo ./tptb_v42_nix.sh
You have to be in the same directory where tptb is...of course the listed command is for version 42.
The .sh file is for Linux not for windows. You cannot run it in "wine".

So, below is an exact copy (ctrl c, then ctrl v) from page 7 of jcs' op for reinstalling webos.
then run "palmenv" and then run "novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh"
Just got back on this project again and have a follow-up question.
From your comment above, I need to add a period here either before the "///" or ".///" slashes or after "bin" or "bin./"?
Here is also a direct copy out of the text file of "fix-webOS-certs.sh"
novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh
So, neither place has a period before either of the /'s as you mentioned. Please advise...thanks again.
Thanks and Sorry, I did not see the previous post to yours. In the meantime, I did run it again without knowing where to put the period and I am a little closer to completing the reinstall...but still don't know why I can't get the last line "novacom run file.....certs.sh" to run.
I redid every step again on the tp and got to the screen where you select the "language". I then opened up the command prompt in windows 7, tp still connected, cd'd until I got to the directory where both "palmenv" and "novacom run file..." is located. I ran "palmenv" and got "Setting Novacom Path ....".
I then immediately ran the "novacom run file....." and got "unable to find device".
I checked my device manager under disk drives and the "HP Webos-usb device" was listed with no flags.
I tried it again, but same message.
One other comment on the "novacom run file....". In windows, when I hit the download button on the "goo" website, it actually opens up. In order to download, I had to select all, paste it in notepad, open up notepad and save as the ".sh" file. So, I don't know if that is screwing something up or not. Otherwise, it would not down load or I would not have it. Strangely, it did download in Ubuntu, but that file did not work either.
So, any advice on how I can complete the very final step on running the "novacom run file....certs.sh"?

Thanks. I had thought the .sh file was for Ubuntu, but I received a message that said those sequence of commands from jcs was to be run in windows. Anyway, I believe the above instructions are how to get the tptb running in Ubuntu. If so, that is not the problem. If not, then from that and other messages received, I would run the .bat file from windows, reboot my system and then run the .sh file in Ubuntu adding "sudo ./ to the "novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh"?
So, for a recap, per jcs's op, one would open the command prompt in windows, and cd to the correct directory where the palmenv,bat file and fix-webOS-certs.sh reside. Then run "palmenv" the run "novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh" file.
For some reason, I doubt he was suggesting changing from windows to Ubuntu when running these commands, but I may be wrong...as I often am.
I know I'm dumber than a hay rake, but really, can someone please explain in detail for this newbie, what he needs to do to run both of those commands? Refer to a previous post link if unfamiliar with what op I'm trying to perform...and am on the last step 7d
I think the issue is that you are trying to install WebOS.
Not sure of the help you are going to get with that as many of us have moved on a while ago and no
longer have the interest in it. You might want to check on other threads where it is relevant.

Yes, that is what the procedure does that jcs has outlined. And thanks for the reply. I have got webos installed which was the easy part, however, running the last two commands appear to be a matter of proper input...which several advices have been given, but none have worked. I was hoping that someone, other than the author of the procedure, had tried it or at least someone may be familiar enough with this type of input to help. Oh well, thanks again.
Progress with novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh
Was able to finally run novacom run file:///bin/sh < fix-webOS-certs.sh after previously receiving unable to locate device message by booting HP Touchpad into developer/USB mode and running novaterm.bat from the terminal folder and connecting from the menu.

I am trying everything I can to get the HP Touchpad wifi working after having done a complete wipe before a system restore and learning the HP Servers are no longer supporting. I have Cyanogenmod 11 installed and wifi worked for approximately one day after each install. When I try to connect to any access point it only says "saved" afterward and the signal seems to drop to zero while connecting. Another strange occurrence is the fact that the wifi mac address that shows in the advanced menu of Cyanogenmod does not match the previously saved mac address on my home wifi set up as an extra security measure. The mac is the same in the device info menu of WebOS when trying to install but getting the message that servers can not be accessed to finish the install. When it was connected for a short time after Cyanogenmod install the MAC address was correct but since it has changed will not connect and the new address gives an unsupported message when trying to add to my network devices list. I have tried all posted troubleshooting steps as well as having installed Busy Box and attempting to change the Mac address manually. I get operation not supported at that prompt in the Terminal Emulator on the Touchpad. Has anyone come across this or been able to get their HP Touchpad working properly with Cyanogenmod 11?
