Title: How do I build complete arch Linux image from scratch?
Post by: dopesoul on February 21, 2014, 06:19:22 AM
Hi all,
How do I build complete arch Linux image distributed in the following URL from scratch?
http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5/olinuxino

I am looking for an exact line-by-line example like this.

I visited follwing website, but this github repository redirects an user to use pre-built image which is not a strength of Olimex open-source hardware.
https://github.com/OLIMEX/archlinuxarm-olinuxino

Following guideline only includes MMC card formatting.

This is a good starting point:
https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/wiki/ArchlinuxARM

as linked from:
http://olimex.wordpress.com/2012/07/05/building-arch-linux-distribution-for-imx233-olinuxino/

Beyond that, you probably need to read up more on the Arch build process.
