TCE Build scripts

[NinjaCowboy]

Are there any scripts that the maintainers use to build tiny core extensions? I'd like to port some x86 only extensions to piCore and make some modifications to other extensions. I do know how to compile software from source and package a tcz extension, but I want to know what configure options and onload scripts were used in the existing extensions.

Hi NinjaCowboy
If you go to the  src  directories you'll find some of the subdirectories include build scripts:
http://tinycorelinux.net/4.x/x86/tcz/src/
http://tinycorelinux.net/4.x/x86_64/tcz/src/
http://tinycorelinux.net/4.x/armv6/tcz/src/
Change the  4  to check in other TC versions. Not every extension has source in every TC version.

Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for.

Hi NinjaCowboy
For source repositories prior to TC4 there are many more packages listed here:
http://tinycorelinux.net/3.x/tcz/src/
http://tinycorelinux.net/2.x/tcz/src/
The format for the URLs is a little different because there were no ARM or 64 bit versions.

Hi NinjaCowboy
And this is the URL for TC1 sources:
http://tinycorelinux.net/tcz/src/

These are some version 9.x scripts that I use to maintain extensions: http://www.asjohnson.com/tinycorelinux/9.x/scripts/. I'm not sure why there isn't any source on the TC website for 9.x, but I would guess it's maintenance related? My scripts check for 32/64 bit, there are a few differences.

Hi andyj

... I'm not sure why there isn't any source on the TC website for 9.x, ...

Sure there are:
http://tinycorelinux.net/9.x/x86/tcz/src/
http://tinycorelinux.net/9.x/x86_64/tcz/src/
http://tinycorelinux.net/9.x/armv6/tcz/src/

Probably because I was looking here: http://tinycorelinux.net/9.x/x86/src/
