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](https://github.com/parazyd/libdevuansdk/blob/master/README.md#requirements):
### 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.

Once initialized, you can run the helper command:
```
; build_image_dist
```
The image will automatically be build for you. Once finished, you will be
able to find it in the `dist/` directory in arm-sdk's root.
