* Fix hardcoded `armhf` in pmb/aportgen/binutils.py * Generate aports: `binutils-aarch64`, `musl-aarch64`, `gcc-aarch64` * Distccd: Remember the cross-compiler architecture (currently armhf or aarch64), that the current distccd is running as, and restart distccd with the correct architecture, in case a different arch is needed than what it is currently running as. (Depending on the cross-compiler arch, the PATH variable gets adjusted before starting distccd) * Testcases: add aport generation for aarch64, add cross-compiling to aarch64 * pmb/parse/arch.py: Add aarch64 to the mapping |

Usage
Check out the porting guide for a practical start!
Run ./pmbootstrap.py init
first, to select a target device and the work folder, which will contain all the chroots and other data.
After that, you can run any command. All dependencies (e.g. chroots) will be installed automatically, if they are not available yet.
Here are some examples:
./pmbootstrap.py --help
:
List all available commands
./pmbootstrap.py log
:
Run tail -f on the logfile, which contains detailed output. Do this in a second terminal, while executing another pmbootstrap
command to get all the details.
./pmbootstrap.py chroot
:
Open a shell inside a native Alpine Linux chroot (~6 MB install size).
./pmbootstrap.py chroot --suffix=buildroot_armhf
:
Open a shell inside an armhf
Alpine Linux chroot, with qemu user mode emulation and binfmt support automatically set up.
./pmbootstrap.py build heimdall
:
Build the "heimdall" package (specify any package from the aports
-folder here).
./pmbootstrap.py build heimdall --arch=armhf
:
Build the "heimdall" package for armhf
inside the armhf
chroot, with the cross-compiler installed in the native chroot (chroots are connected via distcc).
./pmbootstrap.py install
:
Generate a system image file with a full postmarketOS installation. All required packages get built first, if they do not exist yet. You will get asked for the "user" password and the root partition password.
./pmbootstrap.py install --sdcard=/dev/mmcblk0
:
Format and partition the SD card /dev/mmcblk0
, and put a full postmarketOS installation on it
Testsuite
Simply install pytest
(via your package manager or via pip) and run it inside the pmbootstrap folder.
