Re: [Devuan] Devuan on N900, by Enrico_Menotti - a HowTo
This doesn't use Parazyd's Devuan image, this bootstraps a Devuan system from scratch, similar to what my DebiaN900 scripts do after changing the repository URL to Devuan's. I am planning an update to make Devuan and mainline Linux the default.
This guide seems to have a few redundant steps. Emdebian was discontinued several years ago and cross compilation is possible using standard Debian, Devuan, Ubuntu, etc. There's no need to pin systemd-sysv as it's not available in Devuan. It's probably not a good idea to pin udev. As far as I'm aware, Devuan Jessie uses udev and will do so until the vdev replacement is ready. |

I overlooked the fact that you aren't using an initrd. Right now there's no hotplug but there has previously been talk of mainlining work for USB hostmode so it might be needed in the future. Also, I've never had to manually load modules for wifi or battery charging, I believe udev was responsible for loading these automatically. It's great to see more people interested in this. If you haven't already seen my scripts, please do take a look. The code is commented throughout but if you have any queries about anything, please ask. I welcome contributions. As I said earlier, I've still to update them to make Devuan the default which I will be doing soon, but right now it does install Debian without systemd. |
