Title: piCore Standard Build Procedure
Post by: elcouz on December 08, 2023, 02:31:35 PM
Hi,

I am looking build my own kernel with piCore and repackage that into an image.

Do any picore maintainers have internal documentation for the standardized build procedure that are submitted here? Are you able to share to the public?

I have some linux experience and I would like to go on another level further ... i.e. experiment doing that with piCore.

My first goal would be to try with the RT kernel patch.

Any direction would be appreciated :)


Thanks!

Laurent

usually in scr dir

http://tinycorelinux.net/14.x/armv6/releases/RPi/src/

 http://tinycorelinux.net/14.x/armv6/releases/RPi/src/toolchain/compile_tc14_x86_64

 when the repo was browse-able by ftp it seamed (at least to me) more discoverable

... alternatively to ftp rsync can be used to list "explore" files/dirs ftr

Source code IS a documentation for "real hard coders". But for rest of us it is not....

Is there any documentation of piCore bootloader, builder and installation internals?

...probably there is not, but i have to ask first. I have bad memory, so I have to make docs for myself anyway, and of course I will publish docs for community, if valued.

For that, I have to ask lot of very stupid questions for developers, is that ok?

It’s the bootLoader provided by raspberry pi.  All the documentation is on their site.   But it is closed source.

a bit OT ...
wrt "what CAN we know about pi"

Source code IS a documentation for "real hard coders".
