On x86/x64-host you need cross compile tools for the armhf architecture:
sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu libc6-armhf-cross u-boot-tools make gcc swig python-dev python3-pyelftoolsR2:
- loadenv fails because of resized environment (4096 => 8188)
- backup your saved environment before update uboot or change back CONFIG_ENV_SIZE to SZ_4K (./build.sh soc)
- erase your saved environment
env erase
- no emmc-command (not needed "emmc pconf 0x48" = "mmc partconf 0 1 1 0")
#edit build.conf to select bpi-r64/bpi-r2pro/bpi-r3 if needed
./build.sh importconfig
./build.sh config #optional (menuconfig)
./build.sh
./build.sh install #write to sd-card
./build.sh umount #umount automatic mounted partitionsfor all boards there are basic sdcard image templates created containing the full bootchain till uboot.
- bpi-r2.img.gz
- bpi-r2pro.img.gz
- bpi-r3_sdmmc.img.gz
- bpi-r4_sdmmc.img.gz
- bpi-r64_sdmmc.img.gz
These do not contain linux kernel or rootfs but you can flash them as base to sdcard.
gunzip -c bpi-r3_sdmmc.img.gz | sudo dd bs=1M status=progress conv=notrunc,fsync of=/dev/sdX
#writing R3 emmc (booting from spi-nand/nor and load kernel with initrd)
gunzip -c /mnt/bpi-r3_emmc.img.gz | dd bs=1M status=progress conv=notrunc,fsync of=/dev/mmcblk0After this you can extract the rootfs and kernel to the card.
refresh partitiontable and mounting
sudo partprobe /dev/sdX
udisksctl mount -b /dev/disk/by-label/BPI-BOOT
udisksctl mount -b /dev/disk/by-label/BPI-ROOTdebian bullseye rootfs (created by buildchroot.sh in same folder): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mEcz1NLX8kv_AOKCPGGBcebRtLVNrQqF?usp=share_link

# unpack debian rootfs
sudo tar -xzf bullseye_arm64.tar.gz -C /media/$USER/BPI-ROOT
# unpack kernel binary files
sudo tar -xzf bpi-r3_6.1.0-main.tar.gz --strip-components=1 -C /media/$USER/BPI-BOOT BPI-BOOT
# for r3 move kernel binary to root of boot-partition and rename it
mv /media/$USER/BPI-BOOT/bananapi/bpi-r3/linux/bpi-r3.itb /media/$USER/BPI-BOOT/bpi-r3-6.1.0.itb
echo "fit=bpi-r3-6.1.0.itb" >> /media/$USER/BPI-BOOT/uEnv.txt
# unpack kernel modules to rootfs
# debian uses /lib as symlink to usr/lib, extracting the dir from tar overwrites symlink with directory
# which contains then only the kernel-modules, but not other libs so extract the subfolder to /lib
sudo tar -xzf bpi-r3_6.1.0-main.tar.gz --strip-components=2 -C /media/$USER/BPI-ROOT/lib/ BPI-ROOT/lib/R2 uses uImage and kernel=xxx in uEnv.txt (in folder bananapi/bpi-r2/linux) R64, R3, R4 uses fit in in root dir of BPI-BOOT partition (fit=bpi-rX.itb) R2Pro uses now fit and uEnv.txt too (Image.gz+dtb in extlinux folder as fallback).
set root-password and maybe make additional changes:
sudo chroot /media/$USER/BPI-ROOT
passwd
echo "bpi-r3" > /etc/hostname/etc/fstab
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
/dev/mmcblk0p5 /boot vfat errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/mmcblk0p6 / ext4 defaults 0 0maybe add network-config (systemd) and systemd services i uploaded here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kST9ZOv8xQWFfo9GUNIIpKjD8QuYMj8i?usp=share_link
i have created an script which creates full sdcard-Images including rootfs and kernel (except BPI-R4):
