How to use

Building the image

The built images are hardware specific. The following hardware is supported:

Device	How to build	Image location
Norns	./build.sh	output/images/norns.img
Raspberry Pi 3 with norns-shield	./build.sh norns_raspberrypi3_defconfig	output/images/norns-raspberrypi3.img

The build script will start a container which will automatically build the image. Note that two caching directories will be created in your user's home directory:

• ~/.cache/buildroot-downloads: Buildroot's package download cache
• ~/.cache/buildroot-ccache: Buildroot's compiler cache

Interactive building

# Make sure the image is up to date
$ docker pull simonvanderveldt/buildroot:2019.08.3

# Start the container
$ docker run --rm -ti \
  -v "${HOME}/.cache/buildroot-downloads":/buildroot/dl \
  -v "${HOME}/.cache/buildroot-ccache":/root/.buildroot-ccache \
  -v "${PWD}":/mycustombuildroot \
  -v "${PWD}/output/images":/buildroot/output/images \
  -v "${PWD}/output/graphs":/buildroot/output/graphs \
  -e BR2_EXTERNAL=/mycustombuildroot \
  -e BR2_GRAPH_OUT=png \
