Hi, folks!
I know how to use OBS and KIWI, but when it comes to compile kernels, I'm a complete noob... also, I'm getting started with Raspberry Pi.
I thought that would be easier, as there are at least three Linux distributions now (Raspbian [1], LibreELEC and Manjaro) supporting Raspberry Pi 4.
Isn't there a kind of copy/paste that could allow us to boot openSUSE reusing Raspbian configs, for instance?
What do you mean by Rasbian configs? Do you mean the kernel config? We are trying to support RPi4 with the mainline kernel. Raspbian uses a downstream kernel which only works on RPis, so the kernel config won't work on our mainline kernel.
Yes, that's what I meant: kernel config :) I thought about, using openSUSE tools, build a kernel close to the Raspbian's one. Maybe that's what Manjaro did. Now I have 3 SD cards with Raspbian, Manjaro and openSUSE (your in development port). Talking about kernel versions... openSUSE Leap 15.1 for x86-64 - 4.12.14 (I use it on my laptop) Manjaro ARM 19.08 with XFCE - 4.19.65 * Raspbian Buster (10.0) - 4.19.66 * see they are close? Your latest build - 5.3.rc8 (according to openSUSE-Tumbleweed-JeOS ... .packages) openSUSE Tumbleweed for x86-64 - 5.3.1 (according to software.opensuse.org) In kernel.org: stable - 5.3.2 longterm - 4.19.76 I think I'm going to follow your work, but in parallel I will try to port openSUSE Leap 15.1 to RPi4 using an older kernel (4.19.x). Or maybe I will work on 15.2, it seems people are already working on it. I've got a lot to study: how to build ARM packages with OBS, how to compile kernels, how to build OEM images with KIWI / OBS (I'm used to build live ISOs)... Thank you for your efforts and explanations!
