It's old repo and it's never will be added into original repo because differntces between this repo and original is enormous. So I renamed this repo and recomend use Vagrant or other virtual machine with Ubintu 16.04 for building of images. I added my Vagrant config for it.
$ make orangepi_2g-iot_defconfig
$ make
$ sudo dd if=./output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX bs=1M && sync
If you prefere docker you can use docker images for building
docker run -v $(pwd)/images:/workdir --rm -it luckycatalex/dev_environment_light:amd64-ubuntu-16.04 bash -c 'sudo apt install build-essential cpio unzip bc -y && git clone https://github.com/fr0ster/buildroot-OrangePI-2G-IOT.git && cd buildroot-OrangePI-2G-IOT && make orangepi_2g-iot_defconfig && make && cd output/images && tar czf /workdir/image.tar.gz *'
Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation.
The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html
To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:
- run 'make menuconfig'
- select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
- run 'make'
- wait while it compiles
- find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images
You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun!
Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.
Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: [email protected] You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
