Bootstrap a minimal debian for olinuxino-a20-lime2

Thanks to [lukas2511](https://github.com/lukas2511/olinuxino-a20-micro) for
quick bootstrap.

# Build minimal U-boot

```shell
sudo docker pull debian:stable
git clone https://github.com/bleuchtang/olinuxino-a20-lime2
cd olinuxino-a20-lime2 && sudo docker build -t debian/olinux .
```

# Build minimal arm debootstrap

We cannot perform a debootstrap in dockerfile bacause dockerfile doesn't accept
privileged mode. For more details see [docker
issue](https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/1916) 

```shell
sudo docker run --privileged -i -t -v $(pwd)/olinux/:/olinux/ debian/olinux sh ./olinux/create_arm_debootstrap.sh
```

You shoud have both debootstrap and u-boot-sunxi directories in olinux/

# Boot

TODO

# Install on a sdcard

## Partitioning

```shell
parted -s /dev/sdb mklabel msdos
parted -a optimal /dev/sdb mkpart primary fat32 1 16MiB
parted -a optimal /dev/sdb mkpart primary fat32 16MiB 100%
mkfs.fat -F 32 /dev/sdb1
mkfs.ext4  /dev/sdb2
```

## You probably want to Build your own docker image

- Because it's quick and easy; tutorial [here](http://www.aossama.com/build-debian-docker-image-from-scratch/)
- Because you shoudn't trust regitry images; demonstration [here](https://joeyh.name/blog/entry/docker_run_debian/)
