Now open a terminal and type sudo mv /home/alexandra/android /usr/local Then hit enter. there is a space between android and /usr/local

 

[cammykool]

[cammykool]

[jack454]

Not yet. Now go to /usr/local/android and create a folder called system.

Man! I didn't spend an hour of my life digging up the "how to install Java sdk 6 on ubuntu11" because it wasn't important. You wont get anywhere without. I didnt even get a thanks. And I'm only 3 thanks away from 100! Ok I'm over it. Its a long painful process setting up your build machine and get your first build done. But its a good learning process

Next open terminal and run these commands one at a time. When you run repo sync it will take a long time to finish.

cd /usr/local/android/system/
repo init -u git://github.com/inferiorhumanorgans/android.git -b gingerbread
repo sync

 

[cammykool]

using

mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/android/system

[jack454]

No. Did you go to /usr/local/android and make a folder named system

 

[cammykool]

[jack454]

Yes in the /usr/local/android folder.

Got you covered. LOL

 

[cammykool]

seems like running the script posted above put a system folder in the android folder but deleted all the SDK crap

 

[jack454]

sdk crap must not have been there to start with. you were supposed to have made the system folder before running the commands

 

[jack454]

Did you rename the android sdk folder in your home folder to android before you moved it to /usr/local

 

[cammykool]

i renamed it when you said to... here you have teamviewer? i can show you whats going on...

 

[jack454]

I have teamviewer
