Trying to make a slarm64-15.0 image for odroid_c4

Hello,

I'm trying to make a -15.0 image because I don't care for rolling release. I downloaded the image builder from https://gitlab.com/sndwvs/images_build_kit then tried this command:

Code:
ARCH=aarch64 NETWORKMANAGER=no DISTR=slarm64 DISTR_VERSION=15.0 BOARD_NAME=odroid_c4 KERNEL_SOURCE=legacy ./build.sh
I get:
Code:
1;36minfo| added        configuration file environment.conf
|info| added        configuration file build-packages.conf
|info| added        configuration file odroid_c4.conf
|info| added        configuration file meson-sm1.conf
|info| start        build slarm64 ARCH aarch64 images: core
then my console back. What are the commands to just download existing kernels and binaries and just make an image without rebuilding the whole thing?

Thanks,
schu

That got me a little further, but there is a bug in the build_images.sh script. Basically the system tries to parse html which is unreliable for every mirror. Here is a patch that passes the parsing off to lftp which works much better:

Once I did this, I was able to build an image.

this is not because of this, but because the link did not have a folder with slarm64-15.0

I was trying to use my own mirror and it wouldn't work either way because my apache doesn't format in a way the script understands. The default is for https://dl.slarm64.org/slackware/ but before yesterday that didn't have the slarm64-15.0 directory in it so that didn't work either.

At any rate, I still recommend using lftp as it's not as fragile.

Thanks,

Onto the next issue. My system (slackware64-15.0 x86_64) can build a legacy image for the c4 just fine, however the kernel doesn't boot. I get this on the console: https://www.icloud.com/iclouddrive/0...LDw#IMG%5F3496

So, I figure I'll try the next kernel and that fails to compile with this error:

Code:

From what I can tell, mkimage doesn't come in any standard slackware package. I think it's looking for one in the build.

Any ideas why this is failing? I'd sure like a stable image based on slackware64-15.0 that I can use long term.

Thanks

yes and no, mkimage should be used from tools/ (kernel dir), try to find it there and try to execute if it works, then add the path to it to PATH (x86_64 was not tested).
assemble another option on the odroid board itself.

or build the u-boot-tools package

another thing I'm trying to figure out. Suppose I don't want a 6.2.y kernel. Can I compile with a 5.15.y kernel?

I tried:

ARCH=aarch64 NETWORKMANAGER=no DISTR_SOURCE=http://mirrors.aptalaska.net/slackware/slarm64 DISTR=slarm64 DISTR_VERSION=15.0 BOARD_NAME=odroid_c4 KERNEL_SOURCE=next DOWNLOAD_SOURCE_BINARIES=yes COMPILE_BINARIES=yes KERNEL=next KERNEL_BRANCH=linux-5.15.y ./build.sh

But I get:

Code:

HEAD is now at fbe1871b5 Linux 6.2.6
error: pathspec 'linux-5.15.y' did not match any file(s) known to git

if the directory in source/linux-next has not been deleted, you must first delete it.
but do not forget that patches are only suitable for the branch that is configured.
