- Raspberry Pi
- Intro
- =====
- These instructions apply to all models of the Raspberry Pi:
- - the original models A and B,
- - the "enhanced" models A+ and B+,
- - the model B2 (aka Raspberry Pi 2)
- - the model B3 (aka Raspberry Pi 3).
- - the model B4 (aka Raspberry Pi 4).
- How to build it
- ===============
- Configure Buildroot
- -------------------
- There are two RaspberryPi defconfig files in Buildroot, one for each
- major variant, which you should base your work on:
- For models A, B, A+ or B+:
- $ make raspberrypi_defconfig
- For model Zero (model A+ in smaller form factor):
- $ make raspberrypi0_defconfig
- For model 2 B:
- $ make raspberrypi2_defconfig
- For model 3 B and B+:
- $ make raspberrypi3_defconfig
- For model 4 B:
- $ make raspberrypi4_defconfig
- Build the rootfs
- ----------------
- Note: you will need to have access to the network, since Buildroot will
- download the packages' sources.
- You may now build your rootfs with:
- $ make
- (This may take a while, consider getting yourself a coffee ;-) )
- Result of the build
- -------------------
- After building, you should obtain this tree:
- output/images/
- +-- bcm2708-rpi-b.dtb [1]
- +-- bcm2708-rpi-b-plus.dtb [1]
- +-- bcm2709-rpi-2-b.dtb [1]
- +-- bcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb [1]
- +-- bcm2710-rpi-3-b-plus.dtb [1]
- +-- bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb [1]
- +-- boot.vfat
- +-- rootfs.ext4
- +-- rpi-firmware/
- | +-- bootcode.bin
- | +-- cmdline.txt
- | +-- config.txt
- | +-- fixup.dat
- | +-- start.elf
- | `-- overlays/ [2]
- +-- sdcard.img
- `-- zImage
- [1] Not all of them will be present, depending on the RaspberryPi
- model you are using.
- [2] Only for the Raspberry Pi 3/4 Models (overlay pi3-miniuart-bt is needed
- to enable the RPi3 serial console otherwise occupied by the bluetooth
- chip). Alternative would be to disable the serial console in cmdline.txt
- and /etc/inittab.
- How to write the SD card
- ========================
- Once the build process is finished you will have an image called "sdcard.img"
- in the output/images/ directory.
- Copy the bootable "sdcard.img" onto an SD card with "dd":
- $ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX
- Insert the SDcard into your Raspberry Pi, and power it up. Your new system
- should come up now and start two consoles: one on the serial port on
- the P1 header, one on the HDMI output where you can login using a USB
- keyboard.
