Wheretostart

sudo apt-get install subversion g++ ncurses-term zlib1g-dev gawk flex patch
openssh-server minicom picocom tftp tftpd gettext libncurses5 libncurses5-

Getlatestsources
git clone https://github.com/8devices/carambola carambola cd carambola
Getolderrevision
For some reason you might wish to get older source revision. To see available tags execute these commands:
git tag -l
You should see something like this
carambola/v1.0 carambola/v1.1 carambola/v1.1-rc1 carambola/v2.0
carambola/v2.0-rc1 carambola/v2.1 carambola/v2.1-rc1 carambola/v2.1-rc2
carambola/v2.2-rc1 carambola/v2.3-rc1
In order to get older version, type this command (but this should be rare case)
git checkout carambola/v1.0
Stableversion
At this point (2012-11-11) stable version is carambola/v2.3-rc4. To get this version type command:
git checkout carambola/v2.3-rc4

Type
./scripts/feeds update -a ./scripts/feeds install -a
I suppose you would also like to add luci.
Buildimage
If you wish you can change kernel settings, but at this time skip this step.
make kernel_menuconfig
Type
make menuconfig
You should see configuration window like this:
Let's leave everything untouched for now and and exit.
Type
make
for standard building procedure or
make -j 2
if you want to use more than 1 thread and you have more than 1 CPU core on your system. This process takes
long time (it took ~1 hour on 4 core machine) or
make V=99
if you need or want to see more details.
You should see build log like this:
Or if you feel really advanced, you can get email notification upon completing build proces. For this you need to
install and configure email client. After you are done, type this long command:
date > /tmp/text.txt; make -j 2 >> /tmp/text.txt; date >> /tmp/text.txt;
If you wish to observe current progress on computer, type in another console
tail -f /tmp/text.txt
Connectusingserialcable
RS‐232level
It is best to connect to carambola using standard RS-232 male cable. Just plug cable to carambola, set 115200
8N1 settings without hardware flow control and power up your carambola.
TTL3.3Vlevel
However, if you have TTL level USB to serial converter, you should do some soldering.
Remove J9 and J10 jumpers and connect FTDI 3.3V TTL serial to USB cable. J9.1 – RX(input), J10.1 –
TX(output). I used FTDI 3.3V USB to serial converter.
Software
You can use any terminal program you wish to communicate.

•1152008N1,nohardwareflowcontrol.
Windows
I recommend using V-term32 (no need to install just unzip and run) or TeraTerm program.

Linux
If you wish, you can use linux machine to do the same task.
sudo apt-get install xinetd tftpd tftp
sudo touch /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
sudo nano /etc/xinetd.d/tftp
Paste this code:
service tftp { protocol = udp port = 69 socket_type = dgram wait = yes
user = nobody server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args = /home/tftpboot
disable = no }
sudo mkdir /home/tftpboot
sudo chmod -R 777 /home/tftpboot
sudo chown -R nobody /home/tftpboot
sudo service xinetd restart
