# RockyRpi
|
||||
Scripts and kickstarts for building Rocky Linux for Raspberry Pi
|
||||
|
||||
## Purpose of this Repo
|
||||
This repository contains kickstart scripts and commands for producing your own Rocky Linux 8 image for the Raspberry Pi. It's intended mostly for developers or other technical users. If you are simply interested in using Rocky on your Pi, it's much easier to grab the latest image from (currently): https://dl.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/8/rockyrpi/aarch64/images/
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The readme.image.txt file has information and instructions for those interested in downloading and using the ready-made image.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements:
|
||||
|
||||
Producing the Rpi Image requires:
|
||||
|
||||
* A Fedora or EL-based distribution (Rocky/CentOS/RHEL/etc.) **running on aarch64 hardware**
|
||||
* Packages
|
||||
* git
|
||||
|
||||
* EPEL repo enabled (extra packages for enterprise linux)
|
||||
* The appliance-creator program from appliance-tools package ( ```sudo dnf install appliance-tools``` )
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Making an Image
|
||||
The included script to create the image is quite simple. Simply run it (with sudo/root), and specify a location you want to write the produced image to. If the location doesn't exist, it will be created as a directory.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
`sudo ./createRocky8_Image.sh /home/myhomefolder/Rocky8_image/`
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The kickstart/image build process takes approximately 10 minutes on a Raspberry Pi 4 with a decently fast internet connection. Alternatively, you should be able to use any aarch64 hardware that meets the above requirements(Amazon EC2, etc)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Customizing the Kickstart
|
||||
|
||||
All the setup logic for the image is contained within the kickstart file (Rocky8_Rpi.ks). It is intended to be readable and well documented, and you can of course change it anyway you please to produce custom images yourself.
|
||||
|
||||

# Kickstart to build Rocky 8 image for Raspberry Pi 4 hardware (aarch64)
|
||||
#
|
||||
# (many parts liberally grabbed from pgreco: https://github.com/psgreco/sig-core-AltArch/tree/master/image_build )
|
||||
#
|
||||
|
||||
# Here is how to build this kickstart Raspberry Pi image, inside a clean mock chroot environment with livemedia-creator:
|
||||
# (it is very similar to how the other kickstarts are built, but aarch64 must be used, and the livemedia appliance option)
|
||||
#
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Set up mock env, and get a shell inside the chroot:
|
||||
#
|
||||
# mock -r rocky-8-aarch64 --init
|
||||
# mock -r rocky-8-aarch64 --install lorax-lmc-novirt vim pykickstart git
|
||||
# sudo setenforce 0
|
||||
# mock -r rocky-8-aarch64 --shell --isolation=simple --enable-network
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Inside the shell:
|
||||
# git clone https://github.com/rocky-linux/kickstarts
|
||||
# git checkout r8
|
||||
# cd kickstarts/altarch
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Finally, run the image creation:
|
||||
#
|
||||
# livemedia-creator --ks rockyrpi.ks --image-only --image-name RockyRpi --make-disk --resultdir /rockyrpi_result --no-virt
|
||||

== Rocky 8 Raspberry Pi Image ==
|
||||
|
||||
This is a Rocky 8 install intended for Raspberry Pi 3b and 4 devices (architecture is aarch64).
|
||||
|
||||
This image WILL NOT WORK on a Raspberry Pi 1 or 2 (1.1 or earlier), we are 64-bit only, and have no support for 32-bit ARM processors. Sorry :-/.
|
||||
|
||||
The newer Pi Zero devices should be supported, as well as the Raspberry Pi 2 v. 1.2 boards, which are 64-bit
|
||||
|
||||
IMAGE NOTES / DIFFERENCES FROM STOCK ROCKY 8:
|
||||
|
||||
- Based on Rocky Linux 8, points to production Rocky 8 aarch64 repositories
|
||||
- Has an additional repository that contains kernel packages for Raspberry Pi
|
||||
- Includes script that fixes the wifi. Simple edit of a txt firmware settings file. Will need to be run whenever linux-firmware gets upgraded
|
||||
- Includes @minimal-install , plus a few quality of life packages like vim, bash-completion, etc.
|
||||
- Initial User "rocky" (default password: "rockylinux"). Root password disabled, rocky user is a sudoer
|
||||
- Partitions are 300 MB /boot , 512 MB swap, 2800 MB rootfs. Requires a 4 GB or larger storage device to serve as your disk
|
||||
|
||||
GROW YOUR PARTITION:
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to automatically resize your root (/ ) partition, just type the following (as root user):
|
||||
sudo rootfs-expand
|
||||
|
||||
It should fill your main rootfs partition to the end of the disk.

Rocky 8 Raspberry Pi Image version 8.8
|
||||
|
||||
They have been tested on Raspberry Pi 3 and 4.
|
||||
|
||||
Rocky Linux WILL NOT WORK on a Raspberry Pi 1 or 2. They are 32-bit only, and Rocky Linux only supports arm64 (aarch64).
|
||||
|
||||
(edit: Raspberry Pi 2 version 1.2 boards are in fact 64-bit. There aren't too many of these, but they might work. Tell us on chat.rockylinux.org if you have one!)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
QUICK START:
|
||||
####################################################
|
||||
Download the latest image, and write it to your raw microSD memory card (or other boot device).
|
||||
|
||||
GUI WAY (Linux/Win/Mac)
|
||||
Grab a program like Balena Etcher ( https://www.balena.io/etcher/ ) GUI-based disk writer.
|
||||
Insert your SD card and follow the instructions. It will extract and write your disk image.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
COMMAND LINE WAY (assumes Linux system on a root (sudo su) shell):
|
||||
xzcat Rocky_Image_file.raw.xz > /dev/sdX
|
||||
(where X is the letter of your usb or memory card device, you can use fdisk -l to find which one)
|
||||
|
||||
BE CAREFUL, be sure which device you are writing to before you do it! Don't accidentally blow away your laptop/desktop hard drive!
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Once your storage device is written to, you should be able to plug it in to a Raspberry Pi and boot!
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Default username: rocky
|
||||
Default password: rockylinux
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Run "sudo rootfs-expand" to grow the partition and use all of your memory card or hard drive.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
TECHNICAL DETAILS ABOUT THE IMAGES:
|
||||
###################################################
|
||||
- Minimal/base install, with some quality of life packages like vim,nano,bash-completion
|
||||
- Additional Raspberry Pi repo and release package that has Rpi kernels/firmware from the excellent raspberrypi2 repo from upstream CentOS
|
||||
- Script/fix for the wifi on rpi4 (linux-firmware bug)
|
||||
- Default user "rocky" (member of wheel, can use sudo). Root password disabled by default
|
||||
- Partition layout: 300 MB /boot , 512 MB swap, ~2800 MB rootfs. Able to fit on a 4 GB or larger sd card
|
||||
- Everything else should be more or less a standard Rocky aarch64 installation
