How to install apt on rpb(hikey960)

I use this link(http://snapshots.linaro.org/reference-platform/embedded/morty/hikey960/latest/rpb/) to complete the system installation, but I can not use apt, yum, etc. I would like to install apt.
I have try to compiled dpkg source to install dpkg, then I download apt dependencies of debian,I use dpkg to install apt, I added the source of debian jessie in ‘/etc/apt/sources.list’ file, and then update apt, so after the system restart appear:
[FAILED] Failed to start Create Static Device Nodes in /dev.
See ‘systemctl status systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev.service’ for details.
[FAILED] Failed to start Create Volatile Files and Directories.
See ‘systemctl status systemd-tmpfiles-setup.service’ for details.
[FAILED] Failed to start WPA supplicant.
See ‘systemctl status wpa_supplicant.service’ for details.
How can I install apt or yum on this system?

You can’t really use apt or yum with these image, AFAIK we do not offer a package stream compatible with this images. These images are mostly provided for testing, if you want to customize them you are much better off building them from source.

What are you trying to achieve?

I want to use opencv, I want to use apt to install opencv dependencies, thank you

Is there a linux version can use apt or yum?

If you don’t mind to use the debian, then it’s good to try debian image releasing for Hikey: http://builds.96boards.org/releases/hikey/linaro/debian/latest/hikey-jessie_developer_20151130-387-4g.emmc.img.gz

I can confirm this image can boot up at my side, but please note you need use one specific ramdisk.img for booting debian image: http://people.linaro.org/~guodong.xu/myupload/hikey960/build.debian.0509/ramdisk.img.

I use this link(https://github.com/96boards-hikey/tools-images-hikey960/blob/master/build-from-source/README-ATF-UEFI-build-from-source.md) to install the system.I want to know if I only need to repalce boot.img, rpb.img with these two .imgs?
Can you give me a little more details? Thank you

Yes.

For building boot image, you could refer below script:

#!/bin/sh

export ARCH=arm64
export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-

DIR=/home/leoy/work3/hikey960/hikey960-boot/l-loader
BOOT=arch/arm64/boot
DTB=hi3660-hikey960.dtb

make defconfig
make Image dtbs -j8 

RAMDISK=/home/leoy/Downloads/hikey960_debian/ramdisk.img
cat $BOOT/Image $BOOT/dts/hisilicon/$DTB > $BOOT/Image-dtb
abootimg --create $BOOT/boot.img -k $BOOT/Image-dtb -r $RAMDISK -f bootimg-960.cfg

Below are bootimg-960.cfg which I am using:

bootsize = 0x2000000
pagesize = 0x800
kerneladdr = 0x80000
ramdiskaddr = 0x7c00000
secondaddr = 0xf00000
tagsaddr = 0x7a00000
name = 
cmdline = loglevel=15 androidboot.hardware=hikey960 androidboot.selinux=permissive firmware_class.path=/system/etc/firmware root=/dev/sdd10 rootwait rw video=vfb

Hello, when I run the above script, I encountered some problems:
drivers/built-in.o:在函数‘armada_3700_add_composite_clk’中:

make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
cat: arch/arm64/boot/Image: 没有那个文件或目录
./shell.sh: 15: ./shell.sh: abootimg: not found
can you help me?

Could you tell which kernel branch you are using? You might need to use “make hikey960_defconfig” but not “make defconfig” for kernel building.

If you are using Ubuntu, you can install abootimg with command “sudo apt-get install abootimg”; if you are using other distros, you might can find corresponding installation package for abootimg.

I use the files in this link:

So please change to use “make hikey960_defconfig” for kernel building.

I got it,thank you.I will try it tomorrow.

I used the above script generated boot.img file, it is only 33.6MB in size. I used the files which I used to burn rpb files before, only replace the original rpb.img and boot.img with the debian.img(http://builds.96boards.org/releases/hikey/linaro/debian/latest/hikey-jessie_developer_20151130-387-4g.emmc.img.gz) and boot.img I just generated.
I burn the system command is as follows:
#! /bin/bash
sudo fastboot flash ptable ptable-linux-8g.img
sudo fastboot flash xloader sec_xloader.img
sudo fastboot flash fastboot l-loader.bin
sudo fastboot flash fip fip.bin
sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img
sudo fastboot flash system debian9.img

After I boot the system the output is as follows:

Begin: Running /scripts/local-block … done.
Begin: Running /scripts/local-block … done.
Begin: Running /scripts/local-block … done.
done.
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:

  • Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
    • Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
    • Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
  • Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
    chvt: can’t open console
    ALERT! /dev/sdd10 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!

Is there any problem? Thank you

ALERT! /dev/sdd10 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!

The issue should be related with rootfs mounting. Please check two things:

  1. Have you used the ramdisk.img [1] for building boot.img?

  2. After run into ramfs, you could check /dev/ and find what’s the device node for the ‘system’ partition. E.g., it’s not /dev/sdd but another /dev/sdX.

[1] http://people.linaro.org/~guodong.xu/myupload/hikey960/build.debian.0509/ramdisk.img

Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:

  • Boot args (cat / proc / cmdline)
    • Check rootdelay = (did the system wait long enough?)
    • Check root = (did the system wait for the right device?)
  • Missing modules (cat / proc / modules; ls / dev)

Any suggestions can you give me?Thank you

I have uploaded my mainline booting image [1], for your reference. I checked your log, I can see the device node is same with my side, so if you cannot mount the rootfs, would it be caused by the ptable issue (I remembered you tweaked it by yourself on another ticket)? Or it’s caused the problem when you burn debian rootfs image?

[1] http://people.linaro.org/~leo.yan/binaries/hikey960_mainline_boot.img

With your boot.img, I can enter the debian system. However, there are several errors at startup:
1 Failed to insert module ‘ipv6’
