Hi,

this list is said to be suitable for*any*  questions about mkgmap.

I'm trying to create my own img files for a garmin eTrex (instead of
downloading from the tile server). For some reason it does not work the
way I expect, and even by reading all web pages I could find about usage
of mkgmap, I did not find the problem:

   wget -O muenchen.osm
"http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/map?bbox=11.54,48.14,11.543,48.145";
   java -jar mkgmap-r2232/mkgmap.jar muenchen.osm

produces an img-file of just 9216 bytes, there must be something wrong.
The bounding box is really small. The img size is correct for so few data.
  And


   java -jar mkgmap-r2232/mkgmap.jar --index --gmapsupp muenchen.osm

even aborts:

SEVERE (LocationHook): muenchen.osm: Disable LocationHook because
boundary directory does not exist. Dir: bounds
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -1
     at java.util.ArrayList.elementData(ArrayList.java:338)
     at java.util.ArrayList.get(ArrayList.java:351)
     ...

mkgmap is complaining about no bounds found. I think it should complete compilation though. Try downloading boundaries from [1] and placing them in a directory called bounds in the same folder than mkgmap. Your command worked for me with no errors.
Is there anywhere a step-by-step-introduction? I did not find any hint
about what I am doing wrong and what options are really required to
generate img files.
You can have a look at [2] as a start point.
