Debian-Sunxi
Bootstrap a minimal debian rootfs with sunxi kernel and boot files. For now only 4 olinuxino boards are available. All scripts in this repository are generic so it's easy to add a new boad. Please make a pull request if you create and test a new board. I need reviewers for olinuxino lime2 and micro olinuxino boards.
Thanks to lukas2511 for quick bootstrap, and igorpecovnik for some useful scripts.
Build docker image
git clone https://github.com/bleuchtang/sunxi-debian
cd sunxi-debian && sudo docker build -t debian:olinux .
Build sunxi kernel and boot files
To build sunxi kernel and boot files run:
sudo docker run --privileged -i -t -v $(pwd)/olinux/:/olinux/ debian:olinux bash ./olinux/create_sunxi_boot_files.sh
Optional arguments:
- -o offline mode; doesn't pull repositories so you should have run the script once without this option
- -b board type (lime,lime2,micro) default is A20 lime
- -t number of thread for compilation
- -l change linux logo on u-boot and kernel
Build minimal arm debootstrap
We cannot perform a debootstrap in dockerfile because dockerfile doesn't accept privileged mode. For more details see docker issue
To build the minimal debian rootfs with the kernel previously build:
sudo docker run --privileged -i -t -v $(pwd)/olinux/:/olinux/ debian:olinux bash ./olinux/create_arm_debootstrap.sh -i
Optional arguments:
- -n hostnane
- -a add additional packages
- -d debian release (wheezy, jessie...)
- -i install kernel previously build
- -y install yunohost with chroot (testing)
Install on a SD card
Setup SD card device
Find your device card (with dmesg for instance). Call create_device script with this device in parameter. This script install debootstrap previously build.
sudo bash olinux/create_device.sh -d /dev/sdc
You can directly create a image file that you can copy after on your sd card or share with others.
sudo bash olinux/create_device.sh -d img -s 500
Login to your Olimex
Find IP and ssh on it! (password: olinux)
ssh root@mybox

You probably want to Build your own docker image
- Because it's quick and easy; tutorial here
- Because you shouldn't trust registry images; demonstration here
