Pi2B remix

[Clive Messer]

Peter,

Following on from our discussion yesterday, and CC'd to fedora-arm
mailing list, I've uploaded an image.

http://www.digitaldreamtime.co.uk/Fedora/Pi2B-Minimal-armhfp-21-5-2015021...

This is based on the F21 Minimal image with minimal changes. Initial
setup hasn't run, selinux is disabled, firewalld is masked, and root
password is fedora. Otherwise, it is the "stock" image, yum updated
today, minus the "stock" kernel, instead using raspberrypi-kernel
package, which was based on the original Pidora package and modified.
(Same goes for raspberrypi-vc firmware package. Also originated from
Seneca and somewhat modified. ;)) I also added a raspberry-pi-local
package to collect together all the config stuff, specific to Pi so it's
part of a package.... Figured that would make it easier to compose a
spin/remix from scratch....

Specific to supporting the 2B....

I'll follow-up this post when I have time, with my notes, which are
fairly comprehensive.

This is fantastic news!

is this just a matter of DD the .img to my SD card or do I have to use 
the fedora-arm-installer with the .xz and choose a 'u-boot'?

I anticipate my weekend activities will be consumed by this email...

Thanks

Michael

[Robert Knight]

It booted for me when I applied power after writing the unxz'ed image to 
an 8 GB SD card.

I am have quite a bit of trouble with the Ethernet, though.  I can force 
it to be alive by providing enough information for NetworkManager to 
configure it, but I lose 90% or more of the packets to a host on the 
same switch.

Regards,
Robert

I unxz first & then used fedora arm installer, everything looks ok 
mounted in dolphin on fedora 21 here.

Pi 2 Green light on solid when powered up, nothing .

Using a 16GB sandisk ultra uhs-1 uSD, Is that an issue with these ?

I may have to start again.

Are you using the serial console?  It's a minimal version so
has no X.  
I haven't actually tried it with the HDMI connected.

I haven't tested with a monitor/keyboard connected. Just serial console
and ssh into it (root/fedora) over ethernet port. (Everything I'm
interested in is "headless".)

Not sure what the problem is referenced above about the ethernet. I've
tested this on 5 different boards. Packet loss? Nope not seen any
issues. No NetworkManager conf reqd. Works out of the box, assuming you
have dhcp server. Was getting 11.6MB over the eth port yesterday coping
2GB files over nfs, which is par for the course with the on-board 100Mb
port connected via USB to the SoC.

I will make an xfce image over the weekend and post my notes.

I'm not being rude, but I don't have time to hand hold, hence why I
posted the link to this image to an ARM dev list, not a user list! ;)

First thing you guys will need to be doing, is expanding the 3rd (root)
partition to fill the rest of your card. "sc-cleanUpdate-pi" (followed
by a reboot) get's you updated kernel/firmware from yesterday. But you
will need to enlarge that root partition before you update.

This is why I posted.  Since it does work for
you, it's my board or 
network.  Thanks!

I don't
find your response rude at all.  It's a great service to have 
built a usable image.

No need to hand hold Clive, yes
.
I just found my uSD card unexpected until my memory kicked in.

I am making good progress with KDE desktop as I type.

Sorry for the noise.

Adrian,

Is there anything I need to be aware of regarding special configuration
for X, before I respin the KDE/xfce/MATE images with the Pi specific
kernel/vc firmware?

Clive, No it works as expected with systemd graphical target set. I dont 
like sddm,
so I uninstalled and use gdm instead, due to it's more versatile 
auto-login properties.

I did clock it a little

arm_freq=1000
sdram_freq=500
core_freq=500
over_voltage=2

with

hdmi_force_hotplug=1
disable_overscan=1
hdmi_drive=1

and 1920 x 1080 framebuffers

OK, I'm not going to mess with that "default". ;)

Yes, they are the settings that have passed load testing on the 7 Pi2B
boards I have. However, I'll leave them commented and for a user to set,
rather than defaults. With the ondemand governor, and without any
tweaking of those settings there are two freq/speeds available, 600 and
900MHz. "cpupower fequency-info" should show you 600MHz and 1000MHz
being available with "arm_freq=1000" set.

OK, I got a boot, all good.

What happened is about a month ago,...>

I purchased 5 16GB 'sandisk' ultra cards, from an ebay vendor in Perth 
Australia.

I noticed these cards were 540mb bigger than usual, and they would not 
boot on odroids, or anything else
i have. I had put one aside for the Pi hoping it would work, and alas 
obv, it does not.

I got another card from my genuine stock and it works fine.

So watch out for these fake sandisk's the packaging looks real, but the 
extra capacity gives them away,
  besides the no boot.

Not sure when it was added to their (RPi) kernel github. Assuming it has
been, it's in the kernels I'm building. (Currently tracking their
rpi-3.18.y branch.)

"sudo sc-cleanUpdate-pi raspberrypi\*" get's you updated to my latest
kernel builds...

Can you do me a favour? I've too many fingers in too many pies.....
And seen as you know what your doing with Pi hardware and X....

Do you have a spare SDCARD? Can you give this xfce image a quick look?
Plug in keyboard, monitor, ethernet and boot it...

Get the graphical initial setup screen, OK? Get through it OK, to a
working desktop? (The root password is currently fedora, same as that
minimal image, just in case anyone wants to quickly get into it headless
via ssh or serial console.)

http://www.digitaldreamtime.co.uk/Fedora/Pi2B-Fedora-Xfce-armhfp-21-5-201...

I think I mentioned before that I have zero interest in graphical images
myself. Don't use them. But I'll quite happily make them.

For the minimal image, putting "gpu_mem=16" in the
default /boot/config.txt was a no-brainer. But for the X spins, do you
have any suggested defaults? (Not talking about overscan, blah, blah,
blah...) I mean, "start_file=start_x.elf, fixup_file=fixup_x.elf,
gpu_mem=128", should those be the defaults for the gui spins?

Hi again,
will we be seeing the raspberry pi 2 spins available on the fedora arm
website? I've got a copy of the minimal image to play with, I saw mentions
of lxde / xfce / mate / kde. Will they be made available for download also?

I'm itching to get going with the f21 minimal.

Thanks,

Michael,

For the moment, please don't go posting any links to that minimal image.
I'm still working on a few things. Regular users really need a GUI image
for it to be useful to them. I will post a link to an xfce image
tomorrow, and after a little development testing, that could be an image
for public consumption. But having 10's or 100's of users downloading
that 1st minimal image, if a link were to be posted on the Pi Forum,

.... will end up being diverting my attention from making sure the
images have a supporting repo, for keeping them up to date with RPi
development, rather than just stagnating with the firmware/kernel the
original image was created with.

I've spent time today, reducing the requirement to ship pre-compiled
binaries, to just the 2nd and 3rd stage VC boot loader binaries in /boot
partition, everything else being compiled from source and delivered via
the rpm mechanism, in a Fedora compatible manner. At the moment that
update repo is piggybacking on a server that will not support many
users. It needs moving, which I will do tomorrow.....

Regards

Remixes can't be put on the Fedora website but we'll make them
available somewhere for consumption.

Well there's a link above to get that.

Hi Peter,
Thanks, I assumed they couldn't list all the versions for all of the boards
available.
I already have the minimal, just not been near my house to play around yet,
more a comment of excitement than impatience for a download link.

Can I assume that people are just installing x and a desktop environment to
achieve Kde or alike? I'm pretty confident in Linux, Fedora at home and
work and then CantOS for the rest of the company. Just this ARM malarkey
and kernel transplants that confuses me some.

Thanks again,

Michael

The remix works great, nice work!

Checked to see if the pi camera worked, but so far could not get it
working.

'vcgencmd get_camera' gives:
supported=0 detected=0

OK, got it working. After checking raspi-config on raspian:

start_file=start_x.elf in /boot/config.txt

(I already had gpumem set to 128M).

I'll add a note of that to the config.txt, that you need
"start_file=start_x.elf" to end up with a working camera. 

Actually Jugen, if you have a spare half hour and a spare SDCARD, can
you join Adrian and give the tires of that "test" xfce "spin" a kick.

http://www.digitaldreamtime.co.uk/Fedora/Pi2B-Fedora-Xfce-armhfp-21-5-201...

It's good that you are using vcgencmd. Give that some use too! It's now
built from source on the xfce image using Fedora compile options. (On
the Minimal image was still following the Pidora way of doing things,
using the pre-compiled binaries from RPi firmware git.) So a little
testing in that area would be good! ;)

Guys,

I'm currently uploading a new set of images.... (Still in progress) When
done, the Xfce image will be available from...

http://www.digitaldreamtime.co.uk/images/Fidora/21/Pi2B-Fedora-Xfce-armhf...

and the KDE image from...

http://www.digitaldreamtime.co.uk/images/Fidora/21/Pi2B-Fedora-KDE-armhfp...

These images have had the rootfs pre resized for an 8GB card. So don't
try putting on a smaller card unless you "diddle" with the image, prior
to dd'ing it to a card.

These images use the Fedora 21-5 image as base, but have been yum
updated, so packages are current as of today, and have the kernel-*
packages replaced with raspberrypi-kernel-*.

The pre-installed rasbperrypi-kernel package is current as of this
morning. (Did a rpi-3.18.y kernel source pull from PiF github and built
new packages.)

Root password is "pidora". 

The KDE image default hostname is "fidora-kde-remix", which assuming you
plug a network cable in before you boot, will mean you can ssh into it
"ssh root@fidora-kde-remix", if not using monitor/keyboard.

The XFCE images default hostname is "fidora-xfce-remix", so avahi will
advertise as "fidora-xfce-remix.local".

My connection is slow, getting the images up to the server. More images
will be uploaded later today, Minimal and LXDE.

Adrian, yes I was aware of the "other" script to create a Fedora armv7hl
image for Pi2B. The main difference being, that instead of "blatting"
binaries pulled from PiF firmware github onto the "base" image,
everything Pi specific, (aside from boot firmware, which we don't have
source for), on these images I am making is compiled with Fedora flags,
RPM packaged and can be updated using the usual Fedora mechanisms. (eg.
dnf/yum.)

PS. I did ask once before, but noticed yesterday links to the previous
"test" images have been posted to the PiF forum..... Please don't post
links! Pretty please! When ready, I'll post an announcement to the PiF
Pidora/Fedora sub-forum, with links to get the images.

PS2. If you get 404 on the images, they haven't finished uploading. Try
again later.

Regards

Clive

Pi2B F21 armv7hl remix images should have finished uploading to the
server by now.

So far there are Pi2B remixes of the Minimal, LXDE, Xfce and KDE based
on Fedora 21-5 images.

http://www.digitaldreamtime.co.uk/images/Fidora/21

As I mentioned before, initial root password is "fidora". 

NB. I've added avahi to the minimal image as well, (it is already
included on the GUI images), so you can ssh into that too, using...
"ssh root(a)fidora-minimal-remix.local".

Regards

I've successfully downloaded the Xfce and KDE images.

I've put the Xfce image onto an SD card and it booted without problem, 
leaving me in the Anaconda configuration panel, wanting a root and 
possible user specified.  Looks good!

More testing later.

I have installed the previous xfce image (20150217), installs perfectly 
although I would like to be able to set UK keyboard in the firstboot
screen!
Midori crashed while I was trying to look at the fedora home page,
changed
to epiphany and that seemed better.

Also installed the LXQT desktop without any problems, and ran a full dnf
upgrade,
which updated the kernel correctly.

Great job Clive, very much appreciated.

Thanks for testing. (You and everyone else who downloaded an image and
booted it.)

I posted an "announcement" to the RPi Forum.
