Hi guys,
i have just downloaded the packages mentioned in http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/4.1/INSTALL.txt for my PC OpenSuSe.
I followed the manual download rather than the script installation. These are the steps i had followed to get Scratchbox.
  1. i got the required packages from Scratch packages site.http://scratchbox.org/download/files...eases/apophis/
  2. I unzipped all the packages to my folder /home/username/scratchbox/
  3. Now to get maemo sdk, i got the script from http://repository.maemo.org/stable/d...install_4.1.sh and executed the script
sh maemo-sdk-install_4.1.sh

These are the following messages i am getting

Running outside of scratchbox... yes
Script not run as user root... yes
Scratchbox installation found... no
E: Scratchbox not found in installation path '/scratchbox'.
E: Please complete scratchbox installation first.
E: Specify an alternative installation path using '-s PATH' option.
Could somebody help me out with this....

Regards

/home/username/scratchbox is wrong. Scratchbox must be unzipped to /scratchbox.

Yep - - or do as I did (because I didn't have room on the root (/) filesystem): Unzip it somewhere else, and just make a symlink to it in /

I'm really fumbling around in the dark here. I'm trying to install Maemo SDK on my machine running Ubuntu Hardy Heron. I'm following these instructions.

When I use the following code:
Code:
./maemo-sdk-install_4.0.sh
I get this in my terminal:
Code:
This script will install maemo SDK 4.0 chinook release to your computer.

Install options
Do not download or install Nokia EUSA binaries (no)
Force remove of existing targets (no)
Alternative sources.list ('')

Target configuration for armel (CHINOOK_ARMEL)
compiler=cs2005q3.2-glibc2.5-arm
devkits=perl:debian-etch:maemo3-tools:cputransp
cputransp=qemu-arm-0.8.2-sb2

Target configuration for i386 (CHINOOK_X86)
compiler=cs2005q3.2-glibc2.5-i386
devkits=perl:debian-etch:maemo3-tools

Checking for prerequisites

E: Toolchain cs2005q3.2-glibc2.5-i386 required for 'CHINOOK_X86' target.
E: Please complete scratchbox installation first.
E: Specify an alternative installation path using '-s PATH' option.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Hi,

I would suggest you to follow the official instructions, which you can find here:

http://maemo.org/development/sdks/maemo_4-1-2_diablo/

further there is a thread with exactly the same problem, which you can find here:

cheers daniel

Or do as I do.
I have Scratchbox on an external harddisk that I can use on several computers. My Scratchbox lives in a filesystem image on the harddisk, and I simply mount it to /scratchbox when using it. The group sbox must exist on the computer, though.

Create and format the filesystem image (as user):
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/media/hdd/Scratchbox.fs bs=1024 count=3000000
mkfs.ext3 /media/hdd/Scratchbox.fs
Mount to /scratchbox (as root):
Code:
mkdir /scratchbox
mount -o loop -t ext3 /media/hdd/Scratchbox.fs /scratchbox
Install Scratchbox as in the instructions.

Unmount the filesystem image and the hdd and put Scratchbox in your pocket to use it on another PC.
