+This repository contains scripts to bootstrap Debian Linux on m1

 
 

-sudo debootstrap --arch=arm64 testing testing http://ftp.fau.de/debian
+fwx.sh
+======
+fwx.sh extracts the wifi firmware and copies it to /tmp/linux-firmware.tar

+bootstrap.sh
+============
+bootstrap.sh is tested to run on arm64 and amd64 Debian stable and testing. It
+creates several artefacts:

 
 

-Add the following packages:
+        - Live System

 
 

-        ntpdate <wifi> firmware vim tcpdump vlan bridge-utils tmux parted kernel
+                asahi-debian-live.tar can be extracted on the root of a msdos
+                (vfat32) usb stick and than be booted using U Boot.

 
 

-Add the following boot options:
+        - Debian Installer

 
 

-        net.ifnames=0
+                m1-d-i.tar can be extracted on the root of a msdos (vfat32) usb
+                stick and can be booted using U Boot.

 
 

-Fix the root password
+                In the initrd is a /etc/rc.local which searched for the wifi
+                firmware on any vfat, extracts it and reloads the wifi kernel
+                modules.

 
 

-Automate the build of u-boot, m1n1, kernel, debootstrap, grub
+        - Diskimage for Asahi Installer

 
 

-Write a README with the installation steps
+                efi.tgz can be extracted on the root of the esp partition

 
 

-ln -s lib/systemd/systemd init
+                m1.tgz contains a single file which can be dded on a at least 1
+                GB big partition.

 
 

-find . | cpio --quiet -H newc -o | pigz > /boot/initrd.gz
+                        In the disk image is a /etc/rc.local that will extract
+                        the wifi firmware, generate a /etc/fstab, install grub
+                        using Debian methods, mount /boot/efi, assigns a new
+                        UUID to the root filesystem.

+                u-boot.bin is m1n1 with dtb for all models and U Boot
+                u-boot.macho is m1n1 with dtb for all models and U Boot
