Maemo 3.0 (Bora), and Scratchbox APOPHIS installs just fine on Fedora Core 6. Its important to probably follow the install documentation<\/a>, and do just a few other things.<\/p>\n

First of, it starts with the installation. If you’re on an x86_64 platform, it is suggested that you have some kind of chroot<\/tt> environment setup. In Debian land, you might find reading Maemo 2.0 on AMD64<\/a> handy, however in Fedora-land, there’s a great utility called setarch<\/tt>.<\/p>\n

SELinux should be disabled before installation. As root, type echo 0 > \/selinux\/enforce<\/tt>. Then proceed to install via:<\/p>\n

setarch i386sudo .\/maemo-scratchbox-install_3.0.sh -s \/opt\/scratchbox -u username<\/pre>\n
The above installs it to the path \/opt\/scratchbox, and adds username to the sbox group. Now, while in your i386 “chroot”, run, sudo \/opt\/scratchbox\/sbin\/sbox_ctl start<\/tt>, and try running \/opt\/scratchbox\/login<\/tt>. You should be greeted with a prompt like: [sbox-SDK_X86: ~]><\/tt>.<\/p>\n
Outside of Scratchbox (I suggest you exit it), run bash maemo-sdk-install_3.0.sh -s \/opt\/scratchbox<\/tt> (the -s specifies the path, if you installed it in \/scratchbox, its not necessary). Continue following on the instructions in the install documentation.<\/p>\n
Pull down Xephyr via YUM – its xorg-x11-server-Xephyr<\/code>. Remember that all this won’t work unless you’re in the sbox group, so if things seem to be broken, run id<\/tt> and see if you can see that you’re a member of the sbox group.<\/p>\n
\"maemo<\/center><\/a><\/p>\n
Maemo running on Fedora Core 6<\/small><\/div>\n
At startup, just run setarch i386<\/code>, then don’t forget to start scratchbox via sudo \/opt\/scratchbox\/sbin\/sbox_ctl start<\/code>. Fire up Xephyr, via Xephyr :2 -host-cursor -screen 800x480x16 -dpi 96 -ac<\/code> (this should be done outside your setarch-ed environment), and then login to scratchbox, export the display to :2, and run af-sb-init.sh start<\/tt>. You should have the Maemo environment running now.<\/p>\n
Update:<\/strong> Russell Coker<\/a> dropped me a line, and yes, while I don’t simply encourage the turning off, of SELinux, this was not implied by me. There’s a test in maemo-scracthbox-install_3.0.sh<\/tt> that checks on this (lines 420-427), and it recommends that it should be dropped to permissive mode. You can also obviously use the setenforce<\/tt> tool. Also, if you’re looking for a guide to Xephyr, he’s got a resource<\/a> that’s pretty good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
