Testing repo
This forked fork have made following changes to the original code:
- Switched back to debian buster as MIPS big-endian support has been dropped.
- From upstream:
- Added support for
riscv64architecture. To generate, runsudo ./make-rootfs.sh riscv64 multistrap_debian-ports.conf - Removed deprecated package
iproute - Added packages
vimbinutilsfilegccandmake. If they are not wanted, remove them inmultistrap*.conf
- Added support for
I experienced an error with the message
The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available
when using multistrap. According to this report, that is a bug in multistrap. This patch can be applied to $(which multistrap) to fix it.
Generation of Debian rootfs for multiple architectures
This project relies on multistrap and thus can only be used on Debian/Ubuntu host system.
Its purpose is to automate the generation of Debian rootfs for the following architectures:
The following packages need to be installed:
# apt-get install multistrap binfmt-support qemu-user-static
To create a Debian rootfs, symply run:
# ./make-rootfs.sh ARCHITECTURE
Default multistrap configuration files provide Debian packages suited to embedded targets.
They have been tested on a Debian Jessie amd64 host system to build rootfs for all architectures.
They can be modified/overriden if you want to add/remove packages installed by default.
The generated rootfs are ready to use, no further configuration is required.
The root user has an empty password and logs automativally in.
A ssh server is also running (except for s390x), root can connect to it with an emtpy password.
Once running on your target, the rootfs can be upgraded with apt-get commands.
As examples, already built rootfs can be downloaded by clicking on the architecture name in the above list.
