Scripts to set up the raspbian base image used for RIOT's Pi fleet

Introduction

The Pi fleet is a centrally provisioned network of Raspberry Pi's used for testing / developing the RIOT operating system. It's main purpose is to provide both maintainers and the CI system with access to target boards that might be needed for testing purposes.

Overview

The fleet consist of a server running a salt master instance that is used to set up users, networking, ... on a bunch of Raspberry Pis. This repository contains the scripts and files to set up a Pi fleet base image.

Currently it does the following:

• at first boot, set hostname to "pi-${cpu serial number}"
• install salt-minion, set up pihub.riot-labs.de as master

How-to

Set up qemu-arm-static and binfmt-support.

On Arch Linux, install "qemu-user-static" and "binfmt-qemu-static" from AUR.

On Debian, run this:

sudo apt-get install -y qemu qemu-user-static binfmt-support

Download and unzip a Raspian image.

Run

sudo ./setup_image.sh <Raspian image>
