I have been following the GSRD instructions for 16.0 Rev B (I have an ES2 board).
Everything was going well until the section “Build Linux Kernel and Rootfs Using Yocto Recipes”.
I ran the following without apparent issue.
cd ~
$ git clone https://github.com/altera-opensource/angstrom-socfpga.git
$ cd angstrom-socfpga/
$ git checkout -b test_branch ACDS16.0_REL_GSRD_PR
$ MACHINE=arria10 ./oebb.sh config arria10
$ export BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE="$BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE KERNEL_TAG KERNEL_BRANCH UBOOT_TAG"
$ export KERNEL_TAG=refs/tags/ACDS16.0_REL_GSRD_PR
$ export KERNEL_BRANCH=socfpga-3.10-ltsi
$ source ./environment-angstrom-v2014.12
(skipped centos line as I’m building on Ubuntu 14.04)
However on running the final bitbake line -
$ MACHINE=arria10 bitbake virtual/kernel gsrd-console-image
It immediately returns an error -
root@server-1:/samba/PT-Share/CodeStore/Altera/Kernel/angstrom-socfpga# MACHINE=arria10 bitbake virtual/kernel console-image

On checking conf/ there is no sanity.conf.
Any further pointers would be gratefully received.

Ok I had a shiny new production board through this morning so I’ve moved over to the 16.1 build.
As this is based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS I think it has got me over my initial issue, or at least allowed me to get further.
gnewman@server-1:~/angstrom-build$ bitbake gsrd-console-image

Im assuming the license formats can be ignored ??
Unable to resolve ‘refs/tags/ACDS16.1_REL_GSRD_PR’ seems suspicious but this was set in the line
export KERNEL_TAG=refs/tags/ACDS16.1_REL_GSRD_PR as per instructions.
I’m afraid I’m a bit new to yocto, any pointers would be appreciated.

Re-running the bitbake command this morning and it has all sprung to life.
Im assuming something got fixed over night in the Angstrom repository.
