This raspbian-chroot-install script simplifies installation of Raspbian in chroot.
It utilizes qemu-user and binfmt to emulate armhf.
The main purpose of this script is to easily create an environment for (my) c't Raspion development. It is a fork of Alpine-chroot-install but has taken much more rework than I initially thought.
The Script works for me, in my netinst Debian VM. I can not guarantee that it will work anywhere else but it should run on an actual Debian or Ubuntu. You are free to open an Issue on Github.
- Linux system with common userland (Busybox or GNU coreutils)
- POSIX-sh compatible shell (e.g. Busybox ash, dash, Bash, ZSH)
- qemu-user ≥ 2.6 and binfmt, or apt-get (I don't know if 2.6 is really needed. This requirement is based on alpine-chroot-install)
- loopback device / losetup to mount the raspbian.img
- Filesystem-support for ext4 because this is the actual used FS in Raspbian
- unzip for unziping the Image and parted for resizing
raspbian-chroot-install -h- for helpsudo raspbian-chroot-install- downloads raspbian-latest, adds 4GB Space to the Image, installs qemu and binmft (under Debian/Ubunu) and setups the chroot-environment under /raspbian/raspbian/raspbian-chroot enter -u pi /bin/bash- enters the chroot with BASH-Shell as User pi (UID:1000, raspbians default User)
