The OpenBMC project can be described as a Linux distribution for embedded devices that have a BMC; typically, but not limited to, things like servers, top of rack switches or RAID appliances. The OpenBMC stack uses technologies such as Yocto, OpenEmbedded, systemd, and D-Bus to allow easy customization for your server platform.
- Ubuntu 18.04
sudo apt-get install -y git build-essential libsdl1.2-dev texinfo gawk chrpath diffstat
mkdir OpenBMC
cd OpenBMC
git clone https://github.com/AMDESE/OpenBMC.git .
Any build requires an environment set up according to your hardware target.
There is a special script in the root of this repository that can be used
to configure the environment as needed. The script is called setup and
takes the name of your hardware target as an argument.
The script needs to be sourced while in the top directory of the OpenBMC repository clone, and, if run without arguments, will display the list of supported hardware targets, see the following example:
$ . setup
Target machine must be specified.
Once you know the target (e.g. onyx), source the setup script as follows:
. setup sp5
bitbake obmc-phosphor-image
Additional details can be found in the docs repository.
The OpenBMC community maintains a set of tutorials new users can go through to get up to speed on OpenBMC development out here

The builds are beta quality at this point in time. Please check back for updates.
Support of additional hardware and software packages is always welcome. Please follow the contributing guidelines when making a submission. It is expected that contributions contain test cases.
Issues are managed on GitHub. It is recommended you search through the issues before opening a new one.
First, please do a search on the internet. There's a good chance your question has already been asked.
