Rishabh Thaney has made builds for Raspberry Pi using Debian;

https://people.sugarlabs.org/rishabh/,

Testing

Starts at color gender age home view as user "pi", wireless works; showing ad-hoc and wireless Access points.

Home View (F3 key) screenshot:

Does not auto-mount an inserted USB.

Reproducing

This was reproduced 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/sugarlabs/rpi23-gen-image

Install dependencies by going through the README.md file 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.

-== Comparison ==
-Please also compare against the Fedora 26 SoaS image, as it has many more working activities.
-Fedora SoaS does not include wireless firmware, see the [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Raspberry_Pi?rd=Raspberry_Pi#Wifi: FAQ] for a fix.
