# Librean
|
|
|
|
A build system for making blobless debian and mainline kernel for the Asus c201 Chromebook
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build a mainline kernel and Debian filesystem with:
|
|
No blobs, anywhere.
|
|
Support for Aetheros AR271 usb wifi dongles through the open source firmware
|
|
Minimal toolset intended as a based, including tools to setup a wifi connection
|
|
Sources from only main, not contrib or non-free which keeps Debian libre
|
|
TODO: basic graphical desktop like xfce
|
|
|
|
### why
|
|
|
|
Combined with libreboot,an AR271 wifi dongle, and a libre OS (like Debian, the one built by this) the asus c201 is a fully libre machine with no blobs, or microcode.
|
|
|
|
### Dependencies
|
|
|
|
Debsus has been tested on Debian Stretch (in a vm)
|
|
These packages are required:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
apt install --no-install-recommends --no-install-suggests \
|
|
parted cgpt \
|
|
git gawk device-tree-compiler vboot-kernel-utils gcc-arm-none-eabi \
|
|
u-boot-tools \
|
|
gcc make libc-dev wget g++ cmake \
|
|
binfmt-support qemu-user-static debootstrap \
|
|
lzip libssl-dev libncurses-dev flex bison
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Building
|
|
Currently split between 'buildKernel.sh' and 'buildDebianFs.sh'
|
|
Run the kernel one then the fs one.
