# Snoopy
A small script to create custom Debian image for Raspberry Pi.
## WARNING
**You should NOT download and execute a script as (Enoch) root without having idea what it does.**
- So, please, take a look into it and make sure it fits your environment, there is not warranty under any circunstances.
**Raspberry Pi IS NOT open hardware, so, you really don't know if they come bugged.**
- Try to avoid this hardware for real implementations, there are little expensive but far better ARM out there.
- IE: https://www.hardkernel.com/
**This script was designed for Debian environment.**
- It should work on Ubuntu but I don't even tried.
## Description
It creates a rpi compatible SD image and then wraps classical Debian installation strategy using debotstrap.
After that, it does few tweaks into new installation to leave it ready to power on and connect through network.
I wrote this script to make my (and friends..) life easier deploying rpi.
I tried to make it simple, descriptive and clear as possible so anyone can learn from it.
## Usage
**Once again, please, read whole usage and script before start.**
- Clone this repo.
```
git clone https://github.com/basilean/snoopy.git
```
- Change working directory to it.
```
cd snoopy
```
- Edit "OPTIONS" section to fit your needs.
```
vi snoopy.sh
DEBIAN_ARCH="armhf"
DEBIAN_VERSION="sid"
IMAGE_HOSTNAME="nx1701"
IMAGE_LANG="es_AR"
IMAGE_CODE="UTF-8"
IMAGE_TZ="America/Argentina/Buenos_Aires"
PARTITION_BOOT=100
PARTITION_ROOT=2900
INCLUDE_PACKAGES=""
```
- Become root to continue,
```
su - # or # sudo su -
```
- Run it and wait for completation.
(It takes around 10/15 minutes)
```
bash snoopy.sh
```
- You can open another terminal and see in details what is going on.
```
tail -f debian_sid_armhf.log
```
- If everything were right, you should found a list of files.
(using armhf architecture and sid version)
```
debian_sid_armhf.img # Image ready to be burnt into SD.
debian_sid_armhf_key # Private RSA key for root.
debian_sid_armhf_key.pub # Public RSA key for root
debian_sid_armhf.log # Log of commands execution output.
```
- After that, burn SD.
(Don't be foul to copy and paste follow line, check that "of=/dev/mmcblk0" is right SD device and there is not partitions mounted.)
```
dd if=debian_sid_armhf.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=4M
```
- Once you boot rpi, connect to it using ssh key.
```
ssh -i debian_sid_armhf_key root@nx1701
```
- As first command there, resize storage partition to use whole free space.
(it will be deleted after execution to avoid mistakes and loose data)
```
bash /root/resize_storage.bash
```
