Lot's of cool new things in this release!
New Devices!
- Raspberry Pi 3
- Raspberry Pi 2
- Odroid C2
eMMC Burning
created a burner
output which builds an image that will write another image packaged within the first to the board's eMMC. This uses bmap
for reliability and speed and users can configure LEDs to show the status of the flashing process
NixOps Deployments
You can now tell NixOps to cross compile an update for your board and boot into the new configuration! This is in part because standardized on UBoot using extlinux as the bootloader on Raspberry Pis, BeagleBone, and Odroid C2.
Package Fixes
- add a cross compiled version of the
generic-extlinux-compatible
builder - add the option to install a subset of dtbs to board (saves space)
nfs
filesystems now work in cross comp- cross compilation of the raspberry pi bootloader
- add postprocess step to sdImage so we can embed earlier stage bootloaders in the image
