How to build the firmware from source

If you want to build robin from source you need to get the build information from our SVN repository first. Everyone can use the anonymous HTTP checkout or developers can use the SSH based checkout. The SSH based access allows to make changes to the repository which the HTTP access does not allow. If you are interested in a developer account to get involved, please let us know.

Checking out robin via HTTP:

svn co http://dev.open-mesh.com/downloads/svn/robin/trunk/ robin

Using SSH:

SVN_SSH="ssh -i path_to_your_private_key" svn co svn+ssh://firmware-ng@dev.open-mesh.com/robin/trunk/ robin

Now you will find the sources in the newly created folder "robin".
To start the build process simply type:

make

Be patient - depending on the speed of your internet connection and CPU power
the intial process can take up to several hours.
