			== Installing on ODROID-X ==

			The wiki lists a number of Ubuntu pre-req packages to be installed which are probably needed for other SDR software building apart from ghpsdr3-alex.


			If you are building ghpsdr3-alex, the following configure options apply.
			"./configure CFLAGS='-O3 -pipe -mfpu=neon -fno-tree-vectorize -fopenmp' CXXFLAGS='-O3 -pipe -mfpu=neon -fno-tree-vectorize -fopenmp'"


			* Use full-size SD cards - microSD cards in an adaptor won't work, a question to the forum at http://odroid.foros-phpbb.com/c3-odroid-x confirmed the adaptor distorts the signals.



			* Use a small fan above the CPU module. It gets hot and will power down on large builds especially with "make -j 4".


			* Download an image from http://www.mdrjr.net/odroid/mirror/ubuntu12.10-3.6.6/ or whatever is the latest available on the mirror.


			There is a HDMI image and a LCD image if you have the hardkernel LCD display.


			* After burning the image you can mount partition 3 and set up /etc/hosts, /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/network/interfaces as necessary - fixed addresses or dhcp.

			I am using fixed addresses, 192.168.10.x for my main LAN and 192.168.2.x is a Gigabit Ethernet LAN for my HiQSDR.

			# cat /etc/network/interfaces

			auto lo
			iface lo inet loopback

			# The primary network interface

			auto eth0

			iface eth0 inet static

			address 192.168.10.18

			netmask 255.255.255.0

			network 192.168.10.0

			broadcast 192.168.10.255

			dns-nameservers 192.168.10.103

			gateway 192.168.10.103

			# Example to keep MAC address between reboots

			#hwaddress ether DE:AD:BE:EF:CA:FE


			auto eth1

			iface eth1 inet static

			address 192.168.2.197

			netmask 255.255.255.0

			network 192.168.2.0

			broadcast 192.168.2.255

			# auto wlan0

			# iface wlan0 inet dhcp


			* The image burns 4GB on to a SD card. I started with a 16GB card and used gparted on a x86_64 PC to extend the rootfs partition 3. I now have a 32GB card in use.

			I attached a 160GB USB HD and mounted it on the ODROID-X so I could generate the 16GB image and also do local kernel and other software builds - it's a pleasure to build kernels without cross compiling or do it natively while I wait for springtime to arrive.

			"dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=<160GB_MOUNT_POINT>/ODROID-X_16GB.img bs=1M" and copied it to the PC with the scp command.

			* Moving the card back to the PC where the card was detected as /dev/sdc

			"dd if=/ODROID-X_16GB.img of=/dev/sdc bs=1M", use gparted to extend partition 3 to use the full 32GB.

			Of course you could NFS mount the ODROID-X SD card to do some operations after the SD card setup and the ODROID-X is booted.

			* An enclosure - I made up a U-shaped aluminium enclosure with open sides and holes for the Ethernet and USB sockets at the back, a piece of L-shaped perspex screwed on top to hold the fan.
			The P.S is a 5V 2A wall wart I diverted from a USB hub.
