arm-sdk

arm-sdk is simple distro build system aimed at embedded ARM devices. It was first conceived as a component of the Devuan SDK, but now it aims to support multiple Linux distributions.

Requirements

arm-sdk is designed to be used interactively from a terminal, as well as from shell scripts. It requires the following packages to be installed, as well as libdevuansdk dependencies:

Devuan

curl git wget qemu-user-static build-essential rsync gcc-arm-none-eabi gcc-multilib lib32z1 u-boot-tools device-tree-compiler lzop dosfstools vboot-utils vboot-kernel-utils libftdi-dev libfdt-dev swig libpython-dev bc bison flex libssl-dev

Gentoo

net-misc/curl net-misc/wget sys-boot/vboot-utils app-emulation/qemu(static-user) net-misc/rsync sys-libs/zlib dev-embedded/u-boot-tools sys-apps/dtc app-arch/lzop sys-fs/dosfstools sys-devel/flex sys-devel/bison

sudo permissions are required for the user that is running the build.

Quick start

Edit the config file to match your crosscompile toolchains. Then run zsh. In case you have conflicting extensions on your zsh configuration, safest way would be to run a vanilla one, using:

; zsh -f

then step inside the sdk, "source" it:

; cd arm-sdk && source sdk

Now is the time you choose the device and OS you want to build the image for.
