# This configuration can be used to run any distribution on a any x86-64 machine. # As example is used CentOS distribution but can be applied to others also. # # Install CentOS using classic partition scheme (not use LVM) with minimal # 2 partitons /boot/efi and /root. For root please choose only necessary size # e.g. 10G (or desired size). # # This has been tested on images generated with the following command: # # Boot live USB and copy the data from internal storage (hdd, eMMC) e.g. for eMMC: # # dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/media/usb/centos.img bs=1M count=10000 status=progress # # Before running mender-convert we need to fix GPT partition table (as we didn't copy # whole hdd). Run following command to fix GPT partition table on copied image: # # sgdisk -e /media/usb/centos.img # # Converted with the following command: # # MENDER_ARTIFACT_NAME=release-1 ./docker-mender-convert \ # --disk-image input/centos.img \ # --config configs/centos_x86-64_hdd_config \ # --overlay rootfs_overlay_demo/ # # and image must be then copied back after conversion to internal storage (when booted again from live USB) e.g. for hdd: # # zcat /media/usb/centos-x86_64-mender.img.gz | sudo dd of=/dev/sda bs=1M status=progress # # after copy run again (to fix GPT partition table): # sgdisk -e /dev/sda # MENDER_STORAGE_DEVICE_BASE=/dev/sda MENDER_DEVICE_TYPE="x86_64" MENDER_STORAGE_TOTAL_SIZE_MB=16000 # Nothing to copy MENDER_COPY_BOOT_GAP="n" function platform_modify() { # # Make sure /lib64 exists since the Mender binary requires it. # Some systems put everything under /lib (ie Yocto) and a simple # symlink is enough to find everything Mender needs. # if [ ! -e work/rootfs/lib64 ]; then run_and_log_cmd "ln -s /lib work/rootfs/lib64" fi }
