ubuntu-classic-image

Introduction

This project creates a filesystem image for a Raspberry Pi3 or Pi2 (note that only the Pi2 image only uses official, Ubuntu PPAs). You can download an already-built system image for various SBCs at http://bluehorizon.network.

• bluehorizon-snap (http://github.com/open-horizon/bluehorizon-snap): A Ubuntu Snappy bundling of the complete Horizon client components

Operations

Create SD card image

Preconditions

• Execution on an armhf device (often we build on Odroid XU4 or Odroid C2 SBCs)
• You must have the following Linux modules loaded:
  • dm_multipath
• You must have the following tools available (among common GNU tools):
  • kpartx
  • parted
  • zip
  • unzip
  • wget

Steps

• Execute make pi2-sd-image to make an official, Pi2-only image or make pi3-sd-image to make a Pi3 image. The resulting image will be written to /mnt/extra. If you'd like to change the output location, execute (export IMAGE_OUTPUT_DIR=/tmp/; make -e pi3-sd-image).
