Elk Audio OS 1.0 os build problem

Elk Audio OS
1

I am trying to build the ELK Audio OS with GitHub - elk-audio/elk-audio-os-builder: Docker image to build Elk Audio OS

I am running OSX with Apple Silicon, therefore I was very happy about the new os-builder based on container technology.

uname -a
Darwin xyz 22.5.0 Darwin Kernel Version 22.5.0: Thu Jun  8 22:22:20 PDT 2023; root:xnu-8796.121.3~7/RELEASE_ARM64_T6000 arm64

The elk-audio-os-builder was built with

docker build --platform linux/amd64 -t elk-audio-os-builder .

without --platform the container would not build.

When trying to build the OS I am getting the following error:

ERROR: protobuf-c-native-1.4.1-r0 do_compile: oe_runmake failed

Does somebody already have experience with building on OSX with Apple Silicon?

BTW: I dont have docker destop, therefore I tried with OrbStack

I was unable to get the Docker build working on my M1 Macbook, one of the libraries cannot be installed as it not released for the ARM64 architecture, I think it was the gcc-multilib.

I’m not familiar with OrbStack, but am a bit surprised that your docker build, specifying AMD64 fires up at all on the Apple silicon ARM64 platform … I wonder what magic the rosetta tech is doing under the hood.

The error you show indicates that it cannot find something in the ‘x86_64-linux’ path, I wonder if this is associated with running on an ARM chip?

I have gone on to build an Intel based VM (on an older Intel Mac Mini running Proxmox) based on the Docker setup and it works.

Thanks, I will use a x86 computer.

I managed to use the container to cross compile some plugins.
