The build procedure for broadband are as follows:
sd-card size requisite
It is must to have minimal size of 8GB SD-Card for Firmware upgrade support
Generated image has to be flashed to an SD card using this command in local PC:
|
Ex:
|
The SD card is inserted to the Raspberry Pi board and booted to check for containers created.
The Raspberry Pi board is connected to the PC via a USB to serial converter and the logs can be checked in console or can be connected via HDMI cable to a TV and logs will be shown in the terminal
It is necessary to flash the stable image during upgrade. So checksum file has to be created for the image to be uploaded using below command
md5sum checksum creation
md5sum "<imagefile_name>.rootfs.rpi-sdimg" > imagefile_name.txt
After checksum file is created, place this file in tftp location along with actual image file which is expected by firmware upgrade script. Without which firmware upgrade wont be allowed by scripts
If RDKV is flashed for the first time, please ignore below procedure in current section
If firmware upgrade is intended for multi-boot, it is necessary to have partizion size matching to both RDKV and RDKB image size ( especially rootfs ).
But size of RDKB image is around 300 MB approx, but RDKV is more than 1 GB. So it is necessary to have RDKB image flashed SD card should have partition compatible to RDKB.
To make compatible, size of RDKB rootfs partition should be increased to 2 GB ( 2098 MB) from 300MB default
This resize can be achieved using gpartedui tool which should be available in host pc
gparted tool Install and usage
sudo apt-get install gparted
https://gparted.org/display-doc.php%3Fname%3Dmoving-space-between-partitions
Please resize the rootfs partition to 2098 MB or 2GB (/dev/sdb1) accordingly from below procedure as captured in various stages
2. Select the rootfs partition of format ext3 for resize/move option
3. Resize the rootfs partition by giving new size image to 2098 MiB
4. After resize , position stands as below
5.After modifying size, "Apply all operations" using tick symbol in UI which displays icon as below
6. After giving "Apply icon" position stands as below
7. After resizing is completed
8. After applying close size increased to 2 GB can be seen
