but I'm hitting a missing tools problem. make uImage bails out looking for mkimage, which doesn't seem to be in the repos. I googled for it, and downloaded tool-master.zip, but its apparently cross-compiling stuff to be run on x86. Only two Makefiles in a 907 meg when unpacked .zip from github. It contains a mkimage directory but no Makefile to build it. Its apparently a python thing as shown here: pi@picnc:/media/pi/workpi1/tools-master/mkimage $ ls -l total 48 -rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 157 Jan 12 2018 args-uncompressed.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 201 Jan 12 2018 boot-uncompressed.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 32768 Jan 12 2018 first32k.bin -rwxr-xr-x 1 pi pi 822 Jan 12 2018 imagetool-uncompressed.py -rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 343 Jan 12 2018 README pi@picnc:/media/pi/workpi1/tools-master/mkimage $ python imagetool-uncompressed.py usage : imagetool-uncompressed.py <kernel image> pi@picnc:/media/pi/workpi1/tools-master/mkimage $
Am I supposed to setup an alias to run that "in place" or what? Where do I find and install that on an rpi-3b running raspian stretch, uptodate? Or better yet, your version of stretch for an rpi-3b that includes armhf versions of all these tools in "build-essential"?
