Hi,
Are there scripts somewhere for building the official OS images for the A20 card, from official distro package repositories, using debootstrap or the equivalent tool for other distros?
i've been following various instructions online. typically (and rather unhelpfully - see discussions dating back several years) the quotes normal quotes way is to create a quotes disk image quotes. you can tell i'm not very impressed with this practice.
I think it's important that the official OS images aren't just cobbled together by one person, with no one else knowing how to do it; in other words, the build process should be documented, reproducible, and ideally, fully automated.
i have such a huge amount to do already that i'm going to need help doing that. i've outlined some of the process in the updates for the two OSes i've done recently.
