# OpenBMC #

[![Build Status](https://openpower.xyz/buildStatus/icon?job=openbmc-build)](https://openpower.xyz/job/openbmc-build/)

## Building ##

OpenBMC uses Yocto/Open-Embedded for a build system, which supports an 
out-of-tree build.  It is recommended that you create an empty directory
somewhere to hold the build.  This directory will get big.

On Ubuntu 14.04 the following packages are required to build the default target
```
sudo apt-get install -y git build-essential libsdl1.2-dev texinfo gawk chrpath diffstat
```

To start a build:

```
    cd <builddir>
    . <repodir>/openbmc-env
    bitbake obmc-phosphor-image
```
