Image creation problems in Ubuntu 11.10

Description

Using Ubuntu 11.10, I tried to build Haiku trunk with the following commands:

./configure --build-cross-tools ../buildtools/ ./configure --cross-tools-prefix cross-tools/bin/i586-pc-haiku- jam haiku-anyboot-image

After a while compilation finishes, but the build seems to be stuck at the message "Populating image...". I have left the computer working for awhile without success. Using top, I noticed that even while the hard disk is not working, the CPU usage rises up to 99% and remains there. The process using the CPU is bfs_shell. Tried the same process several times without positive results.

I don't know how I even got it to compile... now I'm having problems with bison trying to build the buildtools... :(

Changed the bison version that comes with Ubuntu 11.10 by default to bison 2.0, at least it got further

Reinstalled everything, was using xubuntu based on ubuntu 11.10 (with btrfs), now using lubuntu (based on 11.10 too) with xfs. GCC 4 build is OK, however GCC 2.95 build is not (bison problems). I don't know what was the original problem, maybe it was something related to btrfs?. The GCC 2.95 problem is another issue (should I open another bug?)

FWIW Bison 1.28 from here http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bison/bison-1.28.tar.gz allows the building of the GCC 2.95 compiler. Maybe it should be included in the set of legacy tools together with the GCC sources...

Resolution: fixed
Status: in-progressclosed

Should be fixed in hrev43273.

comment:8 by bonefish, 13 years ago

To clarify: The bison issue should be fixed (though I missed the files that actually were the problem -- corrected in hrev43274). Regarding the other problem, since you already reinstalled your build platform and can't reproduce the issue anymore, it's virtually impossible to do anything with the info you gave. In case you ran into it again, please create a new ticket. Also try to attach gdb to the bfs_shell process and get a back trace.

Thank you very much! Will see if the other problem reappears
