Raspberry Pi
Intro
=====
These instructions apply to all models of the Raspberry Pi:
- the original models A and B,
- the "enhanced" models A+ and B+,
- the model B2 (aka Raspberry Pi 2)
- the model B3 (aka Raspberry Pi 3).
- the model B4 (aka Raspberry Pi 4).
- the model CM4 (aka Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 and IO Board).
How to build it
===============
Configure Buildroot
-------------------
There are several Raspberry Pi defconfig files in Buildroot, one for
each major variant, which you should base your work on:
For models A, B, A+ or B+:
$ make raspberrypi_defconfig
For model Zero (model A+ in smaller form factor):
$ make raspberrypi0_defconfig
or for model Zero W (model Zero with wireless LAN and Bluetooth):
$ make raspberrypi0w_defconfig
For model Zero 2 W (model B3 in smaller form factor):
$ make raspberrypizero2w_defconfig
For model 2 B:
$ make raspberrypi2_defconfig
For model 3 B and B+:
$ make raspberrypi3_defconfig
or for model 3 B and B+ (64 bit):
$ make raspberrypi3_64_defconfig
For model 4 B:
$ make raspberrypi4_defconfig
or for model 4 B (64 bit):
$ make raspberrypi4_64_defconfig
For model CM4 (on IO Board):
$ make raspberrypicm4io_defconfig
or for CM4 (on IO Board - 64 bit):
$ make raspberrypicm4io_64_defconfig
Build the rootfs
----------------
Note: you will need to have access to the network, since Buildroot will
download the packages' sources.
You may now build your rootfs with:
$ make
(This may take a while, consider getting yourself a coffee ;-) )
Result of the build
-------------------
After building, you should obtain this tree:

[1] Not all of them will be present, depending on the RaspberryPi
model you are using.
[2] Only for the Raspberry Pi 3/4 Models (overlay miniuart-bt is needed
to enable the RPi3 serial console otherwise occupied by the bluetooth
chip). Alternative would be to disable the serial console in cmdline.txt
and /etc/inittab.
How to write the SD card
========================
Once the build process is finished you will have an image called "sdcard.img"
in the output/images/ directory.
Copy the bootable "sdcard.img" onto an SD card with "dd":
$ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX
Insert the SDcard into your Raspberry Pi, and power it up. Your new system
should come up now and start two consoles: one on the serial port on
the P1 header, one on the HDMI output where you can login using a USB
keyboard.
How to write to CM4 eMMC memory
===============================
For CM4 modules without eMMC memory see above for booting from SD card,
for CM4 modules with eMMC memory proceed as following:
- fit jumper on IO Board header J2 to disable eMMC boot
- connect IO Board micro USB port (J11 USB slave) to your host linux system
- power up CM4/IO Board (lsusb command should show a '0a5c:2711 Broadcom Corp.
BCM2711 Boot' device)
- run 'sudo ./host/bin/rpiboot', output should look like the following:
Waiting for BCM2835/6/7/2711...
Loading embedded: bootcode4.bin
Sending bootcode.bin
Successful read 4 bytes
Waiting for BCM2835/6/7/2711...
Loading embedded: bootcode4.bin
Second stage boot server
Loading embedded: start4.elf
File read: start4.elf
Second stage boot server done
- a USB mass storage device should show up (the CM4 eMMC memory), proceed
as described above to copy sdcard.img to it
- power down CM4/IO Board
- remove jumper on IO Board header J2 to re-enable eMMC boot
- power up CM4/IO Board
