Package lists

These packages are needed to build Astlinux on Linux.

sudo apt-get install subversion build-essential libncurses5-dev bison flex gettext intltool tofrodos tcl pkg-config dosfstools
sudo apt-get install gperf texinfo autoconf nasm zlib1g-dev libssl-dev libtool rsync unzip git-core gawk lzma dos2unix bc help2man
sudo apt-get install libtool-bin python curl

If you are running as a VMware Guest:

sudo apt-get install open-vm-tools-desktop

It is recommended to change the default shell to bash: /bin/sh → bash

sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash

Optional: If you want to “Create a Flash Image” using astlinux-makeimage, the following library must be installed as well:

sudo apt-get install libc6-i386

*Optional: If you want to “Create a bootable ISO” using build-runnix-iso: sudo apt-get install genisoimage */
Note -> For some Ubuntu versions you may need to add symlinks/aliases from “fromdos” ⇒ “dos2unix” and from “todos” ⇒ unix2dos“, because the the unix2dos package may not exist.
