Previously, the default model for aarch64 raw disk images assumes that you're deploying on Raspberry Pi, and not standard aarch64 systems. This meant that all raw disk images were built with RPi firmware, and an MBR boot record, which made it incompatible with systems that require uEFI/GPT compatibility, especially with Edge Image Builder and Metal3/CAPI deployment usage. This PR introduces the following changes: * Introduces new `Default-RPi` and `Base-RPi` profiles for compatibility with RPi users * Forces `Base` and `Base-RT` profiles to use GPT based images (not MBR) * Introduces a new `Base-RT-RPi` profile for kernel-rt on RPi (with MBR) * Removes Raspberry Pi firmware packages from anything other than RPi profiles * Modifies the `editbootinstall_rpi.sh` script to support container builds * Adds policycoreutils-python-utils to the list of packages (for semanage) See: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1240619

Kiwi SDK Image Instructions
###########################
Please ensure that you're running this on a registered SUSE Linux Micro 6.1 system, and make sure that SELinux is disabled:
# setenforce 0
Next, download the podman image:
# podman pull %%IMG_REPO%%/%%IMG_PREFIXkiwi-builder:%%kiwi_version%%.0
Make a local output directory (where the images will reside):
# mkdir output
Then, to build a standard "Base" image, run the following in podman:
# podman run --privileged -v /etc/zypp/repos.d:/micro-sdk/repos/ -v ./output:/tmp/output -it %%IMG_REPO%%/%%IMG_PREFIXkiwi-builder:%%kiwi_version%%.0 build-image
To build a "Base" SelfInstall ISO, you can add additional flags, for example:
# podman run --privileged -v /etc/zypp/repos.d:/micro-sdk/repos/ -v ./output:/tmp/output -it %%IMG_REPO%%/%%IMG_PREFIXkiwi-builder:%%kiwi_version%%.0 build-image -p Base-SelfInstall
Then, to build a standard "Default" image, run the following in podman:
# podman run --privileged -v /etc/zypp/repos.d:/micro-sdk/repos/ -v ./output:/tmp/output -it %%IMG_REPO%%/%%IMG_PREFIXkiwi-builder:%%kiwi_version%%.0 build-image -p Default
To build a "Default" SelfInstall ISO, you can add additional flags, for example:
# podman run --privileged -v /etc/zypp/repos.d:/micro-sdk/repos/ -v ./output:/tmp/output -it %%IMG_REPO%%/%%IMG_PREFIXkiwi-builder:%%kiwi_version%%.0 build-image -p Default-SelfInstall
To build an image with a RealTime kernel, e.g. a RAW disk image ("Default"), use the following:
# podman run --privileged -v /etc/zypp/repos.d:/micro-sdk/repos/ -v ./output:/tmp/output -it %%IMG_REPO%%/%%IMG_PREFIXkiwi-builder:%%kiwi_version%%.0 build-image -p Base-RT
To build an image that supports a large block/sectorsize (4096), use the "-b" flag, for example:
# podman run --privileged -v /etc/zypp/repos.d:/micro-sdk/repos/ -v ./output:/tmp/output -it %%IMG_REPO%%/%%IMG_PREFIXkiwi-builder:%%kiwi_version%%.0 build-image -p Default-SelfInstall -b
# mkdir mydefs/
# cp /path/to/SL-Micro.kiwi mydefs/
# cp /path/to/config.sh mydefs/
# podman run --privileged -v /etc/zypp/repos.d:/micro-sdk/repos/ -v ./output:/tmp/output -v ./mydefs/:/micro-sdk/defs/ -it %%IMG_REPO%%/%%IMG_PREFIXkiwi-builder:%%kiwi_version%%.0 build-image
All output will be in the local $(pwd)/output directory, for example:
# ls -1 output/
SL-Micro.x86_64-6.1.changes
SL-Micro.x86_64-6.1.packages
SL-Micro.x86_64-6.1.raw
SL-Micro.x86_64-6.1.verified
build
kiwi.result
kiwi.result.json
Note, if you want to rebuild the image, you'll need to empty the output directory, or Kiwi will error due to existing output files:
# rm -rf output/*
