ChillcraftOS Build System

ChillcraftOS is a custom Raspberry Pi OS built using a system based on pi-gen. This build system is specifically designed to create ChillcraftOS images, not general Raspberry Pi OS images.

Important Notes:

  • The 32-bit versions of ChillcraftOS are based on Raspbian.
  • The 64-bit versions of ChillcraftOS are based on Debian.
  • For building 32-bit images, use the master branch.
  • For building 64-bit images, use the arm64 branch.

Dependencies

The ChillcraftOS Build System relies on pi-gen and is compatible with Debian-based operating systems released after 2017. We recommend using the latest OS versions for better security.

For other Linux distributions, you can use the Docker-based build method provided below.

To install the required dependencies for building ChillcraftOS, run the following command:

apt-get install coreutils quilt parted qemu-user-static debootstrap zerofree zip \
dosfstools libarchive-tools libcap2-bin grep rsync xz-utils file git curl bc \
gpg pigz xxd arch-test

The depends file in the repository lists all the necessary tools, formatted as <tool>[:<debian-package>].

Getting Started with Building ChillcraftOS

To start building ChillcraftOS, clone the ChillcraftOS Build System repository:

git clone https://git.oxmc.me/Chillcraft/ChillcraftOS.git

For a shallow clone containing only the latest revision, you can add --depth 1. However, avoid using this on your development machine.

Make sure the repository is cloned to a directory without spaces, as spaces in the base path may cause pi-gen to fail.

Once cloned, you're ready to configure and start building ChillcraftOS.
