Debian (or ubuntu) on a micro sd card (pinebook pro)
#18
(08-20-2020, 12:54 PM)xmixahlx Wrote: review the pbp-tools repo. all your answers are in there. build a 5.8.2 kernel with bulseye/sid/scud, pinning, etc.

especially see the resources/apt and linux/5.8 folders, and review the install and config shell scripts that are of interest.

UPDATE: I have switched to Sid by issuing the script DEBRELEASE=sid ./pkg-config-apt; rebooted and I seemed to be good to go.

Then, I started the linux build process with LINUXREL=5.8 LINUXPATCH=5.8.2 ./pkg-install-linux; this gave an error on bison and flex. Then, I issued

$ sudo apt build-dep linux
$ LINUXREL=5.8 LINUXPATCH=5.8.2 ./pkg-install-linux

it stopped with a compile time error. My system became unusable with read errors; I decided to reboot. My system is broken now, it is giving me boot errors. What did I do wrong? I would not mind giving this another try if I could get some help.

There are a few other issues during the procedure above. First, the apt gave gpg signature errors for deb-multimedia repository. Should I have disabled it? Second is the kernel; was i supposed to addpatches or the command is good enough for a reasonably working system?

Any help is appreciated.
