[beagleboard] Re: debian: test images (2014-02-05)
I have a couple of things I'm working on with the image-builder: * Cape support: I need a way to get dtbo loaded at boot, preferably without custom kernel (e.g. via initrd or by putting the .dtbo's in mmcblp0p1) * Custom image: Building a customized version of the beagleboard.org image For the latter, at your suggestion, I forked the repo and created my own myimage_image.sh by copying beagleboard.org_image.sh. However, you've been busy ... *too* busy and I'm way behind on merging in your changes! It looks like you're working to a more extensible scheme for customizations, I see the machinekit configuration now has a directory with custom scripts in it, along with the machinekit() function in releases.sh. This looks pretty interesting, it would be kind of cool to be able to do: ./image_builder.sh "myimage" And have it raid the ./myimage" directory to get the configuration, package lists etc. for the "myimage" build. How far off is this? I'd love to help test this out.

Add it to: /etc/default/capemgr
This should work with external capes, not already compiled into the kernel.
This is the init script:
https://github.com/RobertCNelson/omap-image-builder/blob/master/target/init_scripts/capemgr-debian.sh
Essentially it's doing:

I don't have any personal plans to do that yet. If you look closely, all
the frontend scripts do is create a ".project" file and call
./RootStock-NG.sh... If you want to make something universal generic, go
ahead.. All generic options should end up in the main chroot call with
"enable" options passed thru .project and anything target specific should
end up under target/

I run the MachineKit builds and added the chroot script hooks. I am also behind on merging Robert's latest changes...I've been waiting for things to settle down a bit and I have some other changes I've been working on (for LinuxCNC, not the build scripts). I haven't tried Robert's absolute latest, but the last time I merged his changes, I was still able to build a custom (MachineKit) image by using an appropriate config file (copy config.machinekit to config) and running ./rcn-ee_image.sh. -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.

This is the approach I use because it is very difficult to track the changes between your rep and Robert¹s repo. It seems you are both applying the same patches, but at different times and in a different order, and you both use different tagging. Once again, I simple apply your patches to Robert¹s repo so that I¹m always current with Robert¹s latest changes. I also host my own kernel images so I update releases.sh to reflect my URL.

It can be a bit confusing. The diffs are a mix of changes to the build scripts I made to support custom images, and general updates to the actual MachineKit build (like adding or removing a package). Lately I haven't had to do much work on the scripts, so my changes have mostly been tweaks that just affect MachineKit, which Robert pulls periodically. Now that Robert is building Debian images with a GUI, I'll likely switch to using that as a base. I generally want to stay as close as possible to the "official" release image and build scripts. There is enough confusion out there already! :) -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
