compile direwolf in Pi with Bookworm


 

I think I lost an instruction...
How do I compile Direwolf version 1.8 - for Bookworm?
I think I lost the proper step for? git checkout dev ?
?
I've done this before and it wasn't difficult, but now ???? I lost some step.
?
Thanks, Arnold, KQ6DI


 

Okay, so I just cut and pasted the instructions I found here and it worked.

Thanks.
I missed this one tiny step;
??
git branch -r


a minor detail.

My only suggestion would be to note the amount of ram and the speed and the number of cpu cores and threads supported on the system doing the compiles.

Most newer machines will do fine with the "make -j4" in the example but for some older slower machines it might actually slow things down trying to do too many compiles simultaneously. Several of my older systems especially the single core 32bit systems complete the compiles more quickly by specifying "make -j1" rather than "-j4".

As always YMMV...

I've never been in a hurry do get things done properly, but thanks for the reminder.
I use either a Pi 3 or Zero 2W.? They are plenty fast.? The slowest part is usually downloading over whatever internet I have available.? The number or cores doesn't make much difference when I only have a small straw to download through...
Thanks again, Arnold, KQ6DI

I use a Pi 2 (?) the first iteration anyway. I am running a 2 way internet gateway without issue.
