Bootstrap

Requisites

• Debian-based OS. It will be eventually possible to bootstrap on other OSes. See below for prebuilt images.

Process

• Download and install this package: http://openinkpot.org/pub/SLIND/pool/host-tools/s/slind-core/clydesdale/slind-core_0.3.18_all.deb
• Copy two .ini-files from /etc/slind to ~/.slind
• Change the following settings in ~/.slind/slind-config.ini:
  • target_arch = armel
  • debian_mirror = <your preferred Debian mirror>
  • slind_mirror = http://openinkpot.org/pub/SLIND
  • gitbase_url = http://git.openinkpot.org http://git.slind.org/gitrepos/
  • work_dir = <directory for development chroot>
  • addon_packages = syslogd dropbear
  • Add slind-control oi-v3-build-firmware to base_hst_pkg_list
• slindctl setup (creates development environment in $work_dir)

Prebuilt images

• get and unpack the latest chroot tarball from http://openinkpot.org/pub/slind-devenv/
• change the uid of user build to your uid in /etc/passwd
• chown all files and directories owned by build user to your uid.

• Use sudo chroot $workdir su - build instead of slindctl chroot in further instructions.

Create and build packages

Refer to SLIND documentation to get information about creating/building packages.

OpenInkpot changes:

• Additional section called media is introduced
• Additional Branching/versioning policy

Use dpkg-buildpackage for building packages. northern-cross is not functional yet.

Create update image

• slindctl chroot (chroots to the development environment). From inside the chroot:
  • build-v3

Install built packages to rootfs
