Debian/Raspberry Pi

2017-06-26

Sucrose images for the Raspberry Pi 3 can be created by using this fork repository:

• https://github.com/Rishabh42/rpi23-gen-image

This was tested on Debian stretch platform which was set up in an schroot shell on Ubuntu.

Setup Schroot

Set up a schroot environment like this:

• Install the schroot and debootstrap packages,

sudo apt install schroot debootstrap

• Create the stretch filesystem,

sudo mkdir -p /srv/chroot/stretch
sudo debootstrap stretch /srv/chroot/stretch

• Make a file /etc/schroot/chroot.d/stretch,

[stretch]
type=directory
personality=linux
directory=/srv/chroot/stretch

• Log into your schroot shell from the terminal,

sudo schroot -c stretch

See https://wiki.debian.org/Schroot for alternate methods.

Setup Builder

Setup the builder within the schroot shell like this;

• Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/Rishabh42/rpi23-gen-image

• Install dependencies by going through the readme file in the repo and executing the commands described,

Run Builder

• Change your directory to the cloned repo and run this command to start the building process:

sh rpi23-gen-image.sh

This takes some time as the scripts start downloading and configuring packages to build an image.

• Once the process is complete in the terminal, navigate to this directory:

~/rpi23-gen-image/images/stretch

to find the image that was built.

Some changes have been made to the original repo: https://github.com/drtyhlpr/rpi23-gen-image which can be viewed in the commit history of the fork mentioned above.

This image can be considered still in beta. This is not the final build.
