Hi,
what would be the best solution to create an image from deployed files?
The wic bootimg-partition plugin copy over files listed in
IMAGE_BOOT_FILES and create a partition inside the wic image. The
image.bbclass creates an image from individual packages.
I want to create an image like the image.bbclass but from deployed files
like the wic bootimg-partition plugin.
I have add an image_types_vfat.bbclass to create vfat images, move the
common parts from image.bbclass into image-common.bbclass and add a
boot-image.bbclass. This class duplicates some code from the wic
bootimg-partition plugin inside the do_rootfs function and add some
dummy tasks to minimize the changes in the common code.
I wonder if this is the right direction or if another solution exists.
I would think you can add a wic kickstart image to generate your desired image
How should this work? I need an image of a single partition without MBR
or GPT. Furthermore I have multiple independent images with different sizes.
Meanwhile I have a working solution with a bare-image bbclass which
installs a list of images from the deploy directory into the image
rootfs. This images could be used by other wic and swupdate images.
Thereby the bare-image bbclass supports all image types plus vfat and
with two additional patches the wic rawcopy plugin supports on the fly
unpack of packed images.
Best regards
Stefan
