The logic that sets up the QEMU static binary to permit running alien binary formats is quite complex. This commit cleans up a lot of the logic around this and adds a huge number of comments to try and clarify why things happen when they do. Ultimately this commit provides a lot of the ground work to factor out all of the chroot setup into a seperate shell file that can be sourced by other mklive tasks that need to operate inside of a chroot with a possibly alien executable format.
The Void Linux image/live/rootfs maker and installer
This repository contains utilities for Void Linux:
-
installer (The Void Linux el-cheapo installer for x86)
-
mklive (The Void Linux live image maker for x86)
-
mkimage (The Void Linux image maker for ARM platforms)
-
mkrootfs (The Void Linux rootfs maker for ARM platforms)
Dependencies
- xbps>=0.45
- qemu-user-static binaries (for mkrootfs)
Usage
Type
$ make
and then see the usage output:
$ ./mklive.sh -h
$ ./mkrootfs.sh -h
$ ./mkimage.sh -h
Examples
Build a native live image with runit and keyboard set to 'fr':
# ./mklive.sh -k fr
Build an i686 (on x86_64) live image with some additional packages:
# ./mklive.sh -a i686 -p 'vim rtorrent'
Build an x86_64 musl live image with packages stored in a local repository:
# ./mklive.sh -a x86_64-musl -r /path/to/host/binpkgs
