=Getting Project Source Code=
Our project is hosted at http://gitorious.org/picopc-android-eclair/ 
Follow below steps, it shows how to set up the building environment, how to download android source code and how to build it from scratch.

=Precondition: Sun JDK=
You would need Sun JDK version 1.5 to build Eclair. However, Sun JDK version 1.5 is known to be EOL (End-Of-Line), and Ubuntu Linux 9.10 no longer ships with sun-java5-jdk.

If you are using Ubuntu Linux 9.10, just add these two line in file /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb <nowiki>http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/</nowiki> karmic-updates multiverse
deb-src <nowiki>http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/</nowiki> karmic-updates multiverse

If you are using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx), add this line to file /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb <nowiki>http://ir.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu</nowiki> hardy-updates main multiverse
and install Sun JDK 1.5:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk
To set the system to use Java 5, you need to update your java alternatives by running

$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
Choose java-1.5.0-sun and it should be done.

=Precondition: git and repo=
Before you download the source, you will need git and repo tools.

On an Ubuntu 9.04 host, you can do the following:

Getting git:

$ sudo apt-get install git-core
Getting repo:

$ curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
For reference details about Repo, see Using Repo and Git.

= Get picoPC-android source =
==Android Gingerbread==

Download the picopc android gingerbread source code (sources available [http://gitorious.org/picopc-android-gingerbread here]):

$ mkdir picopc-android-gingerbread
$ cd picopc-android-gingerbread
$ repo init -u git://gitorious.org/picopc-android-gingerbread/manifest.git
$ repo sync

==Android Eclair==

=Build picoPC-android from source=
==Android Gingerbread==
Setup picopc configurations:
$ cd picopc-android-gingerbread
$ . build/envsetup.sh

Start the building process by executing android build system 'm' command

$ make update-api (only on first compilation)
$ TARGET_PRODUCT=picopc m

==Android Eclair==
Setup picopc configurations:
$ cd picopc-android-eclair
$ ln -sf build/buildspec.mk buildspec.mk
$ . build/envsetup.sh

Start the building process by executing android build system 'm' command

$ m

=Installing picoPC-android files=
==Android Gingerbread==
Once successfully built you can use the picopc-tools to extract the rootfs and system images by running the script in: 
$ picopc-tools/android-tools/rootfs-creator/android-2.3/rootfs-generator.sh

The resulting files from the latest/ folder can be copied in the rootfs partition on microSD

==Android Eclair==
Once successfully built you can use the picopc-tools to extract the rootfs and system images by running the script in: 
$ picopc-tools/android-tools/rootfs-creator/android-2.1/rootfs-generator.sh
