avbtool: command not found

[Michael Burrows]

Hey guys. My computer with ubuntu crashed which resulted in me not being able to run avbtool command

I have my AOSP folder named AOSP.

I run the make avbtool command inside that folder as follows:

/AOSP$ make avbtool

When I try using the avbtool to get information about my system.img

AOSP$  avbtool info_image --image system.img 

avbtool: command not found

running the ls command shows avbtool.

Did you run source build/envsetup.sh and lunch as described at https://source.android.com/setup/build/building?

It's probably because you already generated avbtool previously. Once generated, avbtool is located under out/host/linux-x86/bin/avbtool. Check if it's there. If not you can search it: find out -name avbtool

Compile your source with BOARD_AVB_ENABLE :- true

Thanks! That did it. Should have figured that out by myself. Sorry
