rpi2-fedora-image-builder's Introduction

NOTE: Fedora now produces official images for the Raspberry Pi now. This project is no longer maintained.

Server: https://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/25/Server/armhfp/images/

Workstation: https://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/25/Workstation/armhfp/images/

Other spins: https://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/25/Spins/armhfp/images/

Fedora Image Builder for Raspberry Pi 2

This is a script that transforms the official Fedora armhfp images into a disk image that is bootable by the Raspberry Pi 2.

Usage

By default, mkimage.sh will create a Fedora minimal image with a 50MB boot filesystem and a 900MB root filesystem. If you wish to change these defaults, create a settings.conf file using settings.conf.example as a template.

IMAGEURL="http://mirror.pnl.gov/fedora/linux/releases/21/Images/armhfp/Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-21-5-sda.raw.xz"
# size in MB
BOOTSIZE=50
ROOTSIZE=900

Then simply run the script as root (root privileges are needed to mount filesystem images as loop block devices)

sudo ./mkimage

The script

Downloads the official image from IMAGEURL
Decompresses the official image
Strips the root filesystem image out of the official image (root.img)
Creates a vfat boot partition image (boot.img) of size BOOTSIZE
Clones the raspberrypi/firmware repository from Github
Copies the boot files into the boot filesystem
Resizes the root filesystem to ROOTSIZE
Copies the kernel modules into the root filesystem
Generates an /etc/fstab
Creates a disk image file, partitions it, and copies the boot and root filesystem images into the created partitions

NOTE: This will take a considerable amount of disk space and time depending on your disk and internet speeds. If default settings are used, the disk space requirement is 4.4GB.

To remove all temporary resources needed for building, use the clean.sh script

fbturbo

The fbturbo driver (https://github.com/ssvb/xf86-video-fbturbo) allows for basic 2D hardware acceleration using the VideoCore GPU. This improves performance for things like window drawing. To have the driver included in the final image, copy these files from the sample-resources into the resources directory

cp sample-resources/xorg.conf sample-resources/fbturbo_drv.so resources

config.txt

You can add your custom config.txt to the resources directory and it will be included in the boot filesystem of the final image

rpi2-fedora-image-builder's Issues

Kernel updates

What is the best solution to kernel updates? dnf tries hard with kernels from the official repo but it won't work at the moment.

Line 41, the --show flag is needed on Ubuntu

Line 41, the --show flag is needed on Ubuntu
ex. change
ROOTOFFSET=$(partx $IMAGEFILE | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}')
to:
ROOTOFFSET=$(partx --show $IMAGEFILE | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}')

without the show flag you get:
#3: 1087488- 3432447 ( 2344960 sectors, 1200 MB)
instead of
3 1087488 3432447 2344960 1.1G
So it things 3: is the offset rather than 1087488

Issue when using yum

Hi,

First of all, thank you for creating this builder.
I successfully used your work to boot my rpi. However, I can't install any software using yum.
The file /etc/yum.repo.d.fedora.repo has the baseurl field commented:

name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch
failovermethod=priority
#baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/os/
metalink=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-$releasever&arch=$basearch
enabled=1
metadata_expire=7d
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-$releasever-$basearch
skip_if_unavailable=False

Is it expected or should am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for help

Panic at boot

Hi,
First, thanks for these scripts that run very well, as far as the image building is concerned.

However, whatever the F21 or F22 image I use, it always ends up with a panic at boot:

kernel panic, attempted to kill init exitcode=0x00000004

This comes just after recognition of the USB hub (sorry, no capture possible).
I tried without command line and with a cmdline.txt telling the rootfs, rootfstype, elevator=deadline, rootwait... without success.
The config.txt only sets config_hdmi_boost=5.

Did you experience the same problem and do you have any hints ?

Thanks in advance.

F22 Minimal - default settings build fails

Hi, building Fedora 22 Minimal fails when using default size settings:

But it builds and works fine when I change BOOTSIZE and ROOTSIZE (as I do anyways).

uuid file not found

hello spartacus06,

First of all thank you for this script and the job you've done around, Fedora needs this one specially for no technical person like me , for sure :)

So actually i get an error during the mkimage.sh's script saying that the file uuid can't be found although it's there :/
Since i couldn't find the reason i decided to sign up to Git and report the bug, or may be the problem comes from me but i don't know what i am doing wrong, i hope you can give me a clue .

See what i've got when i run the mkimage.sh script with the -x argument :

device tree loading and spi bus

Hi,
I'm trying to use the spi bus to connect a led screen. However, there is no mention of /dev/spidev0.0 in the filesystem.
I'm not very litterate in kernel config, so I may certainly be missing something, but do you know if that bus is supposed to appear, or should I start the kernel with a specific option to load the 'dtb' and hence have access to the bus?

Thank you for your input.

Successfully on creating image, but nothing happen when plugged in RPI 2

I had successfully on creating image Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-22-3, under Fedora 21 x64 bit running on VMWare Player.
Then, create image on Micro SD using Win32DiskImager.
After plugging in on RPI 2, when turn on, nothing boot happen.
The light red and green in RPI 2 lights continuously.
But, when using Raspbian, on booting, green light will be blinking.
Any clue to get this image works ?

Kernel from raspberrypi/firmware doesn't have XFS support built-in, which F22 server uses for rootfs

Hello,

i tried several times to run Fedora-Server but i have got this error, when i run it on the first boot :

Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(179,2)
entering kdb (current=0xb9900000, pid 1) on processor 0 due to keyboard entry

I've tried to fix the problem with gparted which it did, indeed i saw it detected apparently a problem with XFS that it repaired.
So i boot the fixed sd card into the RPi2 and again i have the same error .

Of course i checked the sha1sum after download the raw file, i built many times a new .img file and tried .xz format (cleaned the cache and files between each attempt) ,and i also used different sd card .

I know many factors could be involved into this issue according what i've found on internet, but since i don't have this error with Fedora Minimal or Raspian i think may be this could be something else .

I am afraid that is a trouble too technical for me but whatever i wanted to report it to let you guys know it, and you probably know better than me what to do in this case .

Thank you .

Fedora-Server-armhfp-24-1.2-sda.raw.img not booting

I git cloned the repository today, manually downloaded the .xz and compared the sha256 checksum. everything is correct there.

After using mkimage.sh and using dd to write the output to various different SD cards I am unable to boot the RPI2.

dd bs=1M if=Fedora-Server-armhfp-24-1.2-sda.raw.img of=/dev/sdg status=progress

Each attempt produces the same error;
PANIC: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknoqn-block(179,2)
Entering kdb (current=0xb9908000, pid 1) on processor 2 due to Keyboard Entry

There is a trace above but I'm unable to scrollback / copy the errors.

Is the latest F24 release verified as working?

Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-rpi-21-5-sda.raw.xz

Hello,
Is there a change you have a link for Fedora-Minimal-armhfp-rpi-21-5-sda.raw.xz F21 is EOL by now. Or maybe upload it on this repo with the release feature of Github?
Thanks

Local Image

Hi Seth, is there a possible to create a local directory to store images in the "settings.conf" which should be used during the installation before the "IMAGEURL=" is used to download the image?
