Systemimage builder for 6LoWPAN Boarder Router
Vagrant setup to build debian stable sd images with lightweight mainline kernel
- amd64 OS (Debian, ArchLinux tested)
- vagrant (>=1.6.5)
- Virtualbox
- at least 5GB free space
- Clone repository
vagrant upvagrant ssh -c "build <board-dirname>"e.g.olimex-A20-lime
This will create the file sarahbox_<board-dirname>.img inside the project directory.
Use build_board_independent and build_board_dependent to build board
(in)dependent parts.
Use build_rootfs as root, build_kernel, build_uboot and/or build_image as root to run the steps separately.
Don't forget to provide the board name.
The generated 1GB image can be written on a sdcard using dd.
The system will try to fetch an IP using dhcp.
Access the system using a serial connection or ssh as user osd with password osd,
default root password is root, change both passwords asap.
- hardware may not be fully supported by mainline kernel (e.g. GPU)
- kernel config only supports minimal features needed for border routers, adapt kernel-config-x.y.z if necessary
- Olimex A20-Lime
The Kernel is built based on the sunxi_defconfig With extra options enabled documented in KERNEL.rst
