Getting the code

$ mkdir rdkb
$ cd rdkb
$ repo init -u https://code.rdkcentral.com/r/manifests -m rdkb.xml -b rdkb-20170313
$ repo sync -j4 --no-clone-bundle

• The -m rdkb.xml in the build sequence above is important. If this is not specified, you will get an RDK-V tree by default.
• The -b rdkb-20170313 in the build sequence above specifies the branch to use. If you omit the -b rdkb-20170313 entirely, you will get the master (HEAD) of each component.
• At any time, the community can build latest master by dropping the -b rdkb-20170313 option in the repo init command.
• We have verified that this iteration boots to a login prompt and that you can log in, and that you can connect with a web browser to the web admin page.

Building the code

$ source meta-cmf-rdkb-bsp-emulator/setup-environment (select qemux86broadband)
$ bitbake rdk-generic-broadband-image

The image path will be: build-qemux86broadband/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86broadband/rdk-generic-broadband-image-qemux86broadband.vmdk

Building TDK

Follow the steps as for a normal build, above, but use the following bitbake command:

$ bitbake rdk-generic-broadband-tdk-image

The image path will be: build-qemux86broadband/tmp/deploy/images/qemux86broadband/rdk-generic-broadband-tdk-image-qemux86broadband.vmdk

TDK for RDK-B documentation is available: https://rdkwiki.com/rdk/display/TDK/TDK+Release+M45
