Guide to compile an OMAP kernel

Hello!
This is a guide to compile a Linux kernel (Android too) for OMAP cores!I am using the Pandaboard for this tutorial.First: We need cross compiling tool chains.

Code:

apt-get install git-core kernel-package fakeroot build-essential \
curl libncurses-dev uboot-mkimageapt-get update
 apt-get install cpp-4.3-arm-linux-gnu  g++-4.3-arm-linux-gnu gcc-4.3-arm-linux-gnu

export ARCH=arm
export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi-

Code:

 sudo apt-get install git
 

Get the source:

Code:

 git clone git://gitorious.org/pandaboard-kernel

git branch --track ti-omap4 remotes/origin/ti-omap4
git checkout ti-omap4

Code:

 cd omap-kernel

(Or whatever the file you downloaded is called!)Time to build:

Code:


make distclean
 make omap4_defconfig
 make menuconfig (*T[i]urn on whatever else you care about*)[/i]
 make uImage

Awesome!

What about make uImage -j3
