# radxa-e25
#### *Debian ARM64 Linux for the Radxa E25*

This Debian ARM64 Linux image is built directly from official packages using the Debian [Debootstrap](https://wiki.debian.org/Debootstrap) utility, see: https://github.com/inindev/radxa-e25/blob/main/debian/make_debian_img.sh#L126

Most patches are directly available from the Debian repos using the built-in ```apt``` package manager, see: https://github.com/inindev/radxa-e25/blob/main/debian/make_debian_img.sh#L355-L365

* Note: The kernel in this bundle is from kernel.org and will not get updates from debian.


The serial console is on uart3:
```
pin 3: rx
pin 5: tx
pin 9: ground
```

### debian bookworm setup


**1. download image**
```
https://github.com/inindev/radxa-e25/releases/download/v12.0.2/radxa-e25_bookworm-1202.img.xz
```


**2. determine the location of the target micro sd card**

* before plugging-in device
```
ls -l /dev/sd*
ls: cannot access '/dev/sd*': No such file or directory
```

* after plugging-in device
```
ls -l /dev/sd*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 0 Apr 10 15:56 /dev/sda
```
* note: for mac, the device is ```/dev/rdiskX```


**3. in the case above, substitute 'a' for 'X' in the command below (for /dev/sda)**
```
sudo sh -c 'xzcat radxa-e25_bookworm-1202.img.xz > /dev/sdX && sync'
```

#### when the micro sd has finished imaging, eject and use it to boot the radxa e25 to finish setup


**4. login account**
```
user: debian
pass: debian
```


**5. take updates**
```
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
```


**6. create account & login as new user**

### building debian bookworm arm64 for the radxa e25 from scratch


The build script builds native arm64 binaries and thus needs to be run from an arm64 device such as a odroid m1 running a 64 bit arm linux. The initial build of this project used a debian arm64 odroid m1, but now uses a rock 5b running debian trixie arm64.


**1. clone the repo**
```
git clone https://github.com/inindev/radxa-e25.git
cd radxa-e25
```


**2. run the debian build script**
```
cd debian
sudo sh make_debian_img.sh
```
* note: edit the build script to change various options: ```nano make_debian_img.sh```


**3. the output if the build completes successfully**
```
mmc_2g.img.xz
```
