build custom image

[orgua]

current state:

• current ubuntu images for bbone are currently here
• the custom path is something like ./ubuntu-armhf-focal-minimal/2022-09-26/am335x-ubuntu-20.04.4-console-armhf-2022-09-26-4gb.img.xz
• these get build by image-builder
• current focal-v5.10 config for the builder is here

new approach:

• build your own, add latest ubuntu 22.04 (jammy) with python 3.10, if possible include shepherd
• the rcn-ee apt repo already has jammy-support (newest, last checked on 2023-03-10)
• a manually updated ubuntu on bbone works fine

script fails on WSL with ubuntu 20.04:

also, prereqs are - via apt:

• m4
• debootstrap
• debootstick
• qemu-system-arm (+ many dependencies)
• chrootuid ?? probably not

For debian 11.6 more prereqs were installed (mostly reading through threads in the web):

• bash-completion (convenience)
• git
• sbuild (just a guess)
• also add buildroot-reqs
• qemubuilder (+ many dependencies)
• [qemu-arm-static] (not avail)
• qemu-user-static
• crossbuild-essential-armhf
• coreutils
• sbuild-qemu
• qemu-utils
• pbuilder
• cdebootstrap
• zstd
• [precise-backports] (ubuntu?)
• schroot
• tree

try to build ubuntu, following the readme

>> ./RootStock-NG.sh -c rcn-ee.net-console-ubuntu-focal-v5.10-ti-armhf
- init
- retrieve & validate many packages
- still fails at same error as above

each execution will add a subfolder in ./ignore/

sudo du -hc --max-depth=1 ./

bootstrap-config broken?
/usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/focal
nano /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/gutsy

there seems to come no update to ubuntu 22.04. but at least it was updated to 20.04.05 recently

alternate method, try buildroot, semi-official beagle or alternatively here.

Reqs for buildroot

• try in debian 11.6

WSL1 might be the problem on W10, so check current status

PS> wsl --list --verbose
  NAME            STATE           VERSION
* Ubuntu-22.04    Stopped         1
  Debian          Stopped         1
  Ubuntu          Stopped         1

Update internals

PS> wsl --update
PS> wsl --set-default-version 2

change nothing at first, maybe only for new distros? So force one distro to V2

PS> wsl --set-version Debian 2
For information on key differences with WSL 2 please visit https://aka.ms/wsl2
Conversion in progress, this may take a few minutes.

update seems instantly!

Omap builder still fails though :(
but a Linux-VM is getting past the critical point!
