HowTo: Finit on Alpine Linux 3.4
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
This is a mini-howto for booting a very basic Alpine Linux with Finit.
|
|
It is assumed that the user has already installed a compiler, C library
|
|
header files, and other tools needed to build a GNU configure based
|
|
project.
|
|
|
|
To start with you need to first install [libuEv][] and [libite][], by
|
|
default they install to `/usr/local` and Alpine's `pkg-config` does not
|
|
look for libraries and header files there. So the `PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR`
|
|
environment variable has to be used:
|
|
|
|
alpine:~/finit# PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./configure \
|
|
--enable-embedded --enable-rw-rootfs --enable-inetd-echo-plugin \
|
|
--enable-inetd-chargen-plugin --enable-inetd-daytime-plugin \
|
|
--enable-inetd-discard-plugin --enable-inetd-time-plugin \
|
|
--with-heading="Alpine Linux 3.4" --with-hostname=alpine
|
|
|
|
The plugins are optional, but the other configure flags are *not*.
|
|
|
|
alpine:~/finit# make all install
|
|
|
|
The installation will skip setting up `/sbin/init`, because it already
|
|
exists, and Alpine is hard coded to use it. So you have to change the
|
|
symlink yourself to point to `finit` instead of `/bin/busybox`.
|
|
|
|
Before rebooting, make sure to install `/etc/finit.conf` and the glue
|
|
`/etc/rc.local` from this directory -- check them both if they need to
|
|
be tweaked for your installation, you may not run Dropbear SSH or speak
|
|
Swedish ...
