Raspberry Pi
Intro
=====
These instructions apply to all models of the Raspberry Pi:
- the original models A and B,
- the "enhanced" models A+ and B+,
- the model B2 (aka Raspberry Pi 2).
How to build it
===============
Configure Buildroot
-------------------
There are two RaspberryPi defconfig files in Buildroot, one for each
major variant, which you should base your work on:
For models A, B, A+ or B+:
$ make raspberrypi_defconfig
And for model 2 B:
$ make raspberrypi2_defconfig
Build the rootfs
----------------
Note: you will need to have access to the network, since Buildroot will
download the packages' sources.
You may now build your rootfs with:
$ make
(This may take a while, consider getting yourself a coffee ;-) )
Result of the build
-------------------
After building, you should obtain this tree:
output/images/
+-- bcm2708-rpi-b.dtb [1]
+-- bcm2708-rpi-b-plus.dtb [1]
+-- bcm2709-rpi-2-b.dtb [1]
+-- boot.vfat
+-- kernel-marked/zImage [2]
+-- rootfs.ext4
+-- rpi-firmware/
| +-- bootcode.bin
| +-- cmdline.txt
| +-- config.txt
| +-- fixup.dat
| `-- start.elf
+-- sdcard.img
`-- zImage
[1] Not all of them will be present, depending on the RaspberryPi
model you are using.
[2] This is the mkknlimg DT-marked kernel.
How to write the SD card
========================
Once the build process is finished you will have an image called "sdcard.img"
in the output/images/ directory.
Copy the bootable "sdcard.img" onto an SD card with "dd":
$ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX
Insert the SDcard into your Raspberry Pi, and power it up. Your new system
should come up now.
