7.14. Yaboot-1.3.13

7.14.1. Installation de Yaboot

Yaboot has a compilation error. The following patch properly fixes the issue:

patch -Np1 -i ../yaboot-1.3.13-fix-1.patch

The following patch removes a redundant test which prevents ofpath from executing against SATA disks:

patch -Np1 -i ../yaboot-1.3.13-ofpath_sata-1.patch

The following patch allows ofpath to use PATH_PREFIX like the other ybin scripts:

patch -Np1 -i ../yaboot-1.3.13-ofpath_path_prefix-1.patch

The Makefile is already set to do kernel-style cross-compiling, but it will try to use strip to strip the second-stage loader. It also tries to change user and group ownership for the installed files to root, which the clfs user cannot do. The following command fixes both issues:

cp Makefile{,.orig}
sed -e "s/\(strip \)/${CLFS_TARGET}-\1/" \
    -e 's/-o root -g root//' \
    Makefile.orig > Makefile

Compile the package:

make CROSS=${CLFS_TARGET}-

Install the package:

make CROSS=${CLFS_TARGET}- ROOT=/tools PREFIX="" install
