uboot: (firmwareOdroidC2/C4) don't invoke patch tool, use patches = [] instead

<title>Building a NixOS (Live) ISO</title>
|

<para>
|
||||
Default live installer configurations are available inside
|
||||
<literal>nixos/modules/installer/cd-dvd</literal>. For building
|
||||
other system images,
|
||||
<link xlink:href="https://github.com/nix-community/nixos-generators">nixos-generators</link>
|
||||
is a good place to start looking at.

<para>

You have two options:

<para>
|

Use any of those default configurations as is

<listitem>
|

<para>
|

Combine them with (any of) your host config(s)

</para>

</listitem>
|

</itemizedlist>
|

<para>
|

System images, such as the live installer ones, know how to enforce
|
||||
configuration settings on wich they immediately depend in order to
|
||||
work correctly.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
However, if you are confident, you can opt to override those
|
||||
enforced values with <literal>mkForce</literal>.

<programlisting>
|
||||
$ git clone https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git
|
||||
$ cd nixpkgs/nixos
|

$ nix-build -A config.system.build.isoImage -I nixos-config=modules/installer/cd-dvd/installation-cd-minimal.nix default.nix

|

<para>
|
||||
To check the content of an ISO image, mount it like so:
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<programlisting>
|
||||
# mount -o loop -t iso9660 ./result/iso/cd.iso /mnt/iso
|
||||
</programlisting>

<section xml:id="sec-building-image-drivers">
|
||||
<title>Additional drivers or firmware</title>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
If you need additional (non-distributable) drivers or firmware in
|
||||
the installer, you might want to extend these configurations.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
For example, to build the GNOME graphical installer ISO, but with
|
||||
support for certain WiFi adapters present in some MacBooks, you
|
||||
can create the following file at
|
||||
<literal>modules/installer/cd-dvd/installation-cd-graphical-gnome-macbook.nix</literal>:
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<programlisting language="bash">
|
||||
{ config, ... }:
|
||||
|
||||
{
|
||||
imports = [ ./installation-cd-graphical-gnome.nix ];
|
||||
|
||||
boot.initrd.kernelModules = [ "wl" ];
|
||||
|
||||
boot.kernelModules = [ "kvm-intel" "wl" ];
|
||||
boot.extraModulePackages = [ config.boot.kernelPackages.broadcom_sta ];
|
||||
}
|
||||
</programlisting>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
Then build it like in the example above:
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<programlisting>
|
||||
$ git clone https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs.git
|
||||
$ cd nixpkgs/nixos
|
||||
$ export NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1
|
||||
$ nix-build -A config.system.build.isoImage -I nixos-config=modules/installer/cd-dvd/installation-cd-graphical-gnome-macbook.nix default.nix
|
||||
</programlisting>

<title>Technical Notes</title>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
The config value enforcement is implemented via
|
||||
<literal>mkImageMediaOverride = mkOverride 60;</literal> and
|
||||
therefore primes over simple value assignments, but also yields to
|
||||
<literal>mkForce</literal>.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
This property allows image designers to implement in semantically
|
||||
correct ways those configuration values upon which the correct
|
||||
functioning of the image depends.
|
||||
</para>
|
||||
<para>
|
||||
For example, the iso base image overrides those file systems which
|
||||
it needs at a minimum for correct functioning, while the installer
|
||||
base image overrides the entire file system layout because there
|
||||
can’t be any other guarantees on a live medium than those given by
|
||||
the live medium itself. The latter is especially true befor
|
||||
formatting the target block device(s). On the other hand, the
|
||||
netboot iso only overrides its minimum dependencies since netboot
|
||||
images are always made-to-target.
