Ni hao ma? I am trying to build Android 8.1 from https://gitlab.com/friendlyelec/rk3399-android-8.1

I have tried on 64 bit Debian 9 and Ubuntu 16.04

I have followed the instructions on the wiki and built uboot and the kernel, then the build fails with an hidl-gen error:

The reason I am doing this is I tried to change the kernel config to support gspca_kinect.so. I believe I did that correctly, I got uboot.img, kernel.img, and resource.img built. I have tried uploading the new kernel to the board directly but it fails with a bad checksum (trust.img?)

I should point out I install Ubuntu and Debian with debootstrap, and that is a requirement in this case. This may be a simple issue of something different (missing package?) that the normal Ubuntu installer does, which I can try on a separate system, that's the next thing I plan to try.

Thank you for your kind attention
