Armbian

Ubuntu/Debian images for ARM based single-board computers http://www.armbian.com

How to build my own image or kernel?

Preparation

  • x86/x64 machine running any OS; 4G ram, SSD, quad core (recommended),
  • VirtualBox or similar virtualization software (highly recommended),
  • alternatively - Docker, systemd-nspawn or other containerization software,
  • compilation environment is highly recommended to be Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 or Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 (other releases are not officially supported),
  • installed basic system, OpenSSH and Samba (optional),
  • superuser rights (configured sudo or root shell).

Execution

apt-get -y install git
git clone https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib --depth 1
cp lib/compile.sh .
./compile.sh

This will download all necessary sources, execute compilation and/or build a bootable image. Most of things will be cached so next run will be extremely faster!

How to edit kernel configuration?

Edit compile.sh and set

KERNEL_CONFIGURE="yes"

to display kernel configuration menu prior to compilation
