(This file comes from the kickstart/appliance-creator repo: https://git.resf.org/sig_altarch/RockyRpi ) Rocky 9 Raspberry Pi Image version 9.2 They have been tested on Raspberry Pi 3 and 4. Rocky Linux WILL NOT WORK on a Raspberry Pi 1 or 2. They are 32-bit only, and Rocky Linux only supports arm64 (aarch64). (edit: Raspberry Pi 2 version 1.2 boards are in fact 64-bit. There aren't too many of these, but they might work. Tell us if you have one!) QUICK START: #################################################### Download the latest image, and write it to your raw microSD memory card (or other boot device). GUI WAY (Linux/Win/Mac) Grab a program like Balena Etcher ( https://www.balena.io/etcher/ ) GUI-based disk writer. Insert your SD card and follow the instructions. It will extract and write your disk image. COMMAND LINE WAY (assumes Linux system on a root (sudo su) shell): xzcat Rocky_Image_file.raw.xz > /dev/sdX (where X is the letter of your usb or memory card device, you can use fdisk -l to find which one) BE CAREFUL, be sure which device you are writing to before you do it! Don't accidentally blow away your laptop/desktop hard drive! Once your storage device is written to, you should be able to plug it in to a Raspberry Pi and boot! Default username: rocky Default password: rockylinux Run "sudo rootfs-expand" to grow the partition and use all of your memory card or hard drive. TECHNICAL DETAILS ABOUT THE IMAGES: ################################################### - Minimal/base install, with some quality of life packages like vim,nano,bash-completion - Additional Raspberry Pi repo and release package that has Rpi kernels/firmware from the excellent raspberrypi2 repo from upstream CentOS - Script/fix for the wifi on rpi4 (linux-firmware bug) - Default user "rocky" (member of wheel, can use sudo). Root password disabled by default - Partition layout: 300 MB /boot , 512 MB swap, ~2800 MB rootfs. Able to fit on a 4 GB or larger sd card - Everything else should be more or less a standard Rocky aarch64 installation Thanks for your interest on Rocky-on-Rpi, feel free to share your experience or contribute in our chat channel at: https://chat.rockylinux.org/rocky-linux/channels/altarch ! -The Rocky Linux Team Thanks for your interest in Rocky Linux on the Raspberry Pi!
