So my initial problem is actually resolved - it turns out I had the package 'ninja' installed, not 'ninja-build' which threw everything into a fit when I tried to actually use ninja.  That being resolved, I was able to get a clean build of the 64 bit kernel (for x86) and made a simulated run.  All looked well during the simulation.  I do have 2 problems following up from this, however.  When trying to use this build for a hardware boot (not simulated boot) I get an error (listed below).  Also, for lengthy reasons, I also need to build a 32 bit version but when I do, this build fails.  

This is the build output from the ia32 build:

Hi Chris,


That's strange, the build system definitely should not hang. 


However I need more information to help at all.  Which OS version are you using (host and seL4)? Which gcc version and cmake version? Is there any output from the init-build script at all? Also, have you used a clean build directory after the initial failure?


Cheers,

Anna.

Subject: [seL4] Demo build
 
Most of my experience with the seL5 microkernel has been through the Genode framework, but now I am attempting to build the demo test of seL4 without Genode using the instructions on the "Getting Started" page of seL4.systems but this seems to not be working for me.  I have the latest version of repo, ninja and CMake (originally, I was given an error that I needed 3.9.x so I upgraded CMake manually).  When I get to the instruction of "../init-build.sh -DPLATFORM=x86_64 -DSIMULATION=TRUE" demo build, the script only hangs.  Nothing gets built and no demo is run.  Is there something missing that I should be doing?

Thanks,
Chris
