Manjaro Linux : Unabe to build T2 SDE /usr/bin/time not found

[kidharb]

I am following the instructions from http://t2sde.org/documentation/buildintro.html

I performed step 2,3 and skipped step 4

Step 5 results in the error below

➜  t2-trunk sudo ./scripts/Build-Target -cfg system
Paranoia Check: No active swap partition found!
That can cause the build scripts to stall your system!. Better
activate swap using the 'swapon' command and try again.

If I change line 297 of scripts/Build-Pkg to the below

I get the following error

Is there a recommended distribution that I should use to build from source?

[coolluke1992]

1. use root
   2.download a premade ISO from http://dl.t2sde.org/binary/2024/
   3.tar the pkgs to a folder for a chroot if you dont want to install directly
   4.try again without the need for sudo and make own ./scripts/Config if you wish

but would be much better off installing the ISO bare metal

Thanks.

I tried installing from a pre-built ISO but ran into #169

[kidharb]

I think I will continue trying to build my own ISO from source. That way I will learn about the build system and I will be able to create my own UEFI ISO image at the end. Thanks @coolluke1992
