How to build an image

Prerequisites

• Linux installation
• Installed Docker (https://docs.docker.com/install/)
• Installed repo command (https://gerrit.googlesource.com/git-repo/+/refs/heads/master/README.md)

Fetching sources

mkdir workdir
repo init -u git://github.com/Openvario/ovlinux-manifest.git -b warrior
repo sync

This will fetch the manifest file for the warrior branch.

Starting the containerd build environment

The "old" Ubuntu 18.04 build container (for warrior branch):

sudo docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/workdir linuxianer99/ovbuild --workdir=/workdir
cd poky

The "new" Debian 11 build container (for hardknott branch):

sudo docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/workdir ghcr.io/openvario/ovbuild-container:main --workdir=/workdir
cd poky

Configuring the build (only necessary once after fetching the repos)

TEMPLATECONF=meta-openvario/conf source oe-init-build-env

Setting the machine

export MACHINE=openvario-7-CH070

Available machines for the OpenVario with the original adapter board are:

• openvario-7-PQ070
• openvario-7-CH070
• openvario-57-lvds
• openvario-43-rgb

Available machines for the OpenVario with the new adapter board DS2 are:

• openvario-7-CH070-DS2
• openvario-7-AM070-DS2
• openvario-57-lvds-DS2

Starting the build

bitbake openvario-image-testing
