CrossPack tracks WINAVR (for windows), which -is just a package of avr-gcc and related utilities, so similar builds should -work on Windows or Linux systems. - -One of the Arduino-specific changes is modifications to the makefile to -allow building optiboot using only the tools installed as part of the -Arduino environment, or the Arduino source development tree. All three -build procedures should yield identical binaries (.hex files) (although -this may change if compiler versions drift apart between CrossPack and -the Arduino IDE.) - - -Building Optiboot in the Arduino IDE Install. - -Work in the .../hardware/arduino/bootloaders/optiboot/ and use the -"omake <targets>" command, which just generates a command that uses -the arduino-included "make" utility with a command like: - make OS=windows ENV=arduino <targets> -or make OS=macosx ENV=arduino <targets> -On windows, this assumes you're using the windows command shell. If -you're using a cygwin or mingw shell, or have one of those in your -path, the build will probably break due to slash vs backslash issues. -On a Mac, if you have the developer tools installed, you can use the -Apple-supplied version of make. -The makefile uses relative paths ("../../../tools/" and such) to find -the programs it needs, so you need to work in the existing optiboot -directory (or something created at the same "level") for it to work. - - -Building Optiboot in the Arduino Source Development Install. - -In this case, there is no special shell script, and you're assumed to -have "make" installed somewhere in your path. -Build the Arduino source ("ant build") to unpack the tools into the -expected directory. -Work in Arduino/hardware/arduino/bootloaders/optiboot and use - make OS=windows ENV=arduinodev <targets> -or make OS=macosx ENV=arduinodev <targets> - - -Programming Chips Using the _isp Targets - -The CPU targets have corresponding ISP targets that will actuall -program the bootloader into a chip.
