so i had been doing a full html analysis dump of the 500d, I started the other day at midnight and this morning around 5am it failed at 70%...
So i spent all day setting up the arm-console on my macbook (yayy).
Now I can actually copy/paste from the terminal, and hopefully it'll be a little quicker.
For anybody looking to setup the console on a macbook, couple tips:
1) install yagarto, it's the ARM toolchain (super easy with yagarto compare to running the build script on the wiki)
- yagarto just has an installer, you can snag that from here(scroll down to mac os x):
http://www.yagarto.de/2) install macports, you can use this to install many of the requirements
- the bigger requirements will take a while to install - set aside a good 3-4 hours for this.
3) install fink - it's like the apt-get equivilant for OS X, some packages can be found on fink (but are missing from macports).
4) Follow this guide here for getting matpotlib setup (it can be a nightmare):
http://sublimated.wordpress.com/2009/01/20/how-to-install-matplotlib-and-scipy-using-macports/- one fix - when you go to run python_select, it won't work, the correct syntax (it's since been updated? idk) is:
sudo port select python python26
5) follow the wiki page for setting up the console here:
http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/GPL_Tools/ARM_console6) even though cheetah, python-profiler and a couple other things were installed as pre-reqs during the macports installs, I still had to install them manually for some reason, setup is super easy - just download, unzip and run
sudo python setup.py install
for each of them.
- I used yappi for python-profiler:
