2023-12-13rpi-cmdline, rpi-u-boot-src: Support USB bootHarunobu Kurokawa
The Raspberry Pi 4 board can boot the image from USB memory. But current meta-raspberrypi supports only SD boot. This commit allows switching SD boot to other device. For example, if you want to use USB boot, please define the following parameters in your conf/local.conf file. CMDLINE_ROOT_PARTITION = "/dev/sda2" BOOT_MEDIA = "usb" v4: Update extra-build-config.md to explain more detail for new variable. v3: Changed variable name to "BOOT_MEDIA" (was "BOOT_DEVTIPE"). v2: Set existing microSD parameter as default. User can overwrite some parameters. Signed-off-by: Harunobu Kurokawa <harunobu.kurokawa.dn@renesas.com>

2018-07-16sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass: drop KERNEL_INITRAMFS variableMartin Jansa
* use INITRAMFS_SYMLINK_NAME from new kernel-artifact-names.bbclass instead of KERNEL_INITRAMFS * the documentation says that KERNEL_INITRAMFS should be used to define extension of initramfs, but in linux-raspberrypi.inc it's defined only to 1 or empty based on INITRAMFS_IMAGE_BUNDLE variable and I don't see any code in meta-raspberry or oe-core which would use KERNEL_INITRAMFS to actualy name the initramfs artifact to create: ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin used in classes/sdcard_image-rpi.bbclass * also fix the assumption that there is -${MACHINE} suffix in: ${DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE}/${KERNEL_IMAGETYPE}${KERNEL_INITRAMFS}-${MACHINE}.bin because that's defined as KERNEL_IMAGE_SYMLINK_NAME and some DISTROs might use different value * this depends on oe-core changes which were merged today: http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=7d0ef0eaa1bfe97015a774c26f5791622e7e8b12 * this is the last piece of previous pull-request: https://github.com/agherzan/meta-raspberrypi/pull/159 Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa <Martin.Jansa@gmail.com>

2017-05-26docs: Initial split of README into docs directoryPaul Barker
The top-level README document has got pretty unwieldy and so we need to switch to add some more structure to our documentation. The first step is to split out sub-sections of the README document into separate files in a new 'docs' directory. Whilst splitting up the README, we can also take the opportunity to tidy things up and fix a couple of typos. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>
