On macOS, you'll need to launch the Docker application from your Applications folder before you can run these scripts. This can take about 10-15 minutes, depending on your computer.

make chippro_defconfig

Creating this config file takes less than a minute.

If you want to add some capabilities to the default rootfs, you can use an ncurses UI to navigate the many options of buildroot:

make nconfig

If you want to add some capabilities to the kernel, you can use an ncurses UI to navigate the many options:

make linux-nconfig

Now you are ready to build!

make

This can take an hour or more.

Now that you have built an operating system, you can flash it to CHIP Pro.

Hold down the fel button and power up the Dev Board and

scripts/flash-gadget

The image will flash to the CHIP Pro. Once flashing has finished, reboot your device. You can then connect via UART and start using it.
