Build fails on genksyms/parse.tab.c

[soh...@bu.edu]

New to the android x86 world.

First question: Is there any way to configure the makefile for my particular hardware platform? I have an Up Squared board where I can run Android X86 8.1 - rc1 (ISO image, 32-bit), but not rc2. rc2 version goes to the root shell and stops there. It doesn't show the GUI, but the rc1 version without hardware acceleration does. I want to compile the ISO from source for my particular board. Is there any way to do it?

Second question: I have downloaded the source and tried to build it on CentOS 7 and Ubuntu 16.04. It fails at genksyms/parse.tab.c My make command is: make iso_img TARGET_PRODUCT=android_x86 The error is the following:

Also posted on StackOverflow. Any idea on how to solve the issue?

I would appreciate any help. Thanks!
