#Mount the SDK<br>It is important to know that it is not a good idea to use Qemu and the Meego SDK. This is because of:<br>a) In case Qemu crash once, you can not start it again, everything is gone.<br>b) Qemu is very slow on compiling<br>c) For mounting working directories into Qemu you need to use nfs which is possible but increase complexity<br>d) The Image Partitions for netbook and handset are just to small in order to hold the mozilla sources<br><br>Steps:<br>1. Create mount point on your HOST Storage whereever you like it best<br><pre> mkdir ~/meegoSDK </pre> 2. Create a working directory on your HOST Storage whereever you like it best<br><pre> mkdir ~/meegoWorkingDirectory</pre>3. Create a mount point within the meegoSDK Directory<br><pre> mkdir ~/meegoSDK/meegoWorkingDirectory</pre>4. Mount the SDK Image into your Host System<br><pre> mount -o loop,offset=512 /usr/lib/madde/linux-i686/runtimes/meego-netbook-ia32-qemu-1.1.20101031.2037-sda-runtime/meego-netbook-ia32-qemu-1.1.20101031.2037-sda.raw ~/meegoSDK </pre> 5. Bind Mount your external Working Directory into the SDK Working Directory<br><pre> mount --bind ~/meegoWorkingDirectory ~/meegoSDK/meegoWorkingDirectory</pre>  

#ChangeRoot into MeegoSDK<br>1. Copy the changeroot script from this page (see section "Scripts"<br> 2. Use this script by calling<br><pre>sdk-changeroot ~/meegoSDK</pre>  

#Get and Compile Mercurial<br>MeegoSDK is missing Mercurial packages, we need to download, compile and install them by our own.<br><pre>cd /meegoWorkingDirectory</pre><pre>wget http://mercurial.selenic.com/release/mercurial-1.7.2.tar.gz </pre><pre>tar -xzf mercurial-1.7.2.tar.gz </pre> <pre>cd mercurial-1.7.2.tar.gz </pre><pre>make install</pre>  

#Get Xulrunner Sources from Meego Developer Preview Repository<br><pre>cd /meegoWorkingDirectory </pre> <pre>hg clone http://hg.meego.com/mozilla-central </pre> <pre>hg update -C PRC1 </pre>
