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.
