Root FS Builds with Ubuntu 20.04

[dack-fe]

Updated Root FS to Ubuntu 20.04 - Closes #15
Automatically adds Frost Edge and the supporting packages

Closes #22

[dack-fe]

We should be able to eliminate the need for using dos2unix by creating the following .gitattributes file:

* text=auto  eol=lf

We can use finer-grained control if we want, e.g. only sh files are forced to use lf endings in the repo and in checkout.

https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/using-git/configuring-git-to-handle-line-endings

Added as Enhancement Issue #22

This was never designed for a straight WSL Build due to permissions.
Gotcha. I think I had it working on WSL at some point, but I don't remember. I guess I would have likely needed to build it in the WSL filesystem.

I didn't have a proper Ubuntu machine to test on, but I imagine it still works fine since that's what I originally developed on. Either way, docker handles any OS so it doesn't matter.

Jenkins is currently building on Ubuntu 20.04 with Docker

👍 💯

A straight WSL build is not working for me, but I suspect the problem is on my end; apt complains about invalid gpg signatures:

Did you try running it directly through WSL on the Windows filesystem or the WSL filesystem? It will fail running it directly on the Windows filesystem because it can't handle the chroot properly. I recall getting errors in that same area but I don't know if they were the exact same error from running it on the Windows filesystem.

Edit:

I guess I would have likely needed to build it in the WSL filesystem.

Just saw you posted this, that is almost certainly the issue.

I agree and needing to run dos2unix becomes rather annoying pretty quickly since things dont just work. I have fixed this with de1b2e9 which closes #22

Looks good

Just built it in the WSL filesystem -- worked flawlessly. I now recall @fe-wickham mentioning chroot issues in the Windows filesystem before...

I can also confirm that the frost-edge deb download worked, and there was no need to run dos2unix on a fresh clone, so the eol conversions seemed to work as well.

It's beautiful! 🥳

I did get an npm error about certificates, though -- not sure if it's actually important:

npm ERR! code UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY
npm ERR! errno UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY
npm ERR! request to https://registry.npmjs.org/assert-plus/-/assert-plus-1.0.0.tgz failed, reason: unable to get local issuer certificate

I also get some warnings around sudo when the wifi-connect installer runs:

sudo: unable to resolve host trevvvyx1carbon: Name or service not known

I suspect this is because we are running as root, so sudo doesn't really make sense. This isn't really an issue, but we could squelch that warning by using sed to remove sudo from the wifi-connect install script.

• I am not seeing these NPM Errors in Jenkins. @tvannoy Did you test the Frost Web App?

Interesting, I am getting them in the docker build and the WSL build. It appears to be solved by npm config set strict-ssl false, which is in frost-edge packaging scripts; I wonder if the version that is being downloaded from S3 does not have that npm setting.

@tvannoy Did you test the Frost Web App?

I am out of town, so I do not currently have an audio mini with me to test with.

We don't, but Balena's install script that we download does.

Updated the Frost Edge Package on S3.
