ソースコードからISOイメージを作成する方法

Building a VyOS image is fairly easy and straightforward.

Preparing build machine

You need to setup Debian Squeeze.

Build architecture is selected based on host architecture, so to build 32-bit image, use 32-bit debian squeeze host; for 64-bit use 64-bit squeeze host.

Currently (VyOS Hydrogen) does NOT compile on anything else than debian squeeze (Debian 6)

Installing Debian & VyOS archive keys

In case it's not already installed:

apt-get install debian-archive-keyring

And then follow the steps in Public_key to install the VyOS archive key.

If you skip this step, you might get warnings about untrusted packages during build.

Installing SquashFS tools

First, you will need a more recent squashfs package than squeeze has. VyOS uses extended file attributes, and older (pre 4.2) versions do not handle attributes.

It is available from squeeze-backports repository.

1 Add this "deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main" to your sources.list (or add a new file with the ".list" extension to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/)
2 Run apt-get update
3 Run "sudo apt-get -t squeeze-backports install squashfs-tools"

Installing build dependencies

Building the ISO requires some packages not installed by default. To install them, run:

sudo apt-get install git autoconf automake dpkg-dev live-helper syslinux genisoimage

Getting the build-iso source

git clone https://github.com/vyos/build-iso.git
cd build-iso

Then you need to switch the branch. Current stable branch is "hydrogen", current development branch is "helium". Helium is now set as default and when you clone the repo, you are already on it.

If you want a different branch (e.g. hydrogen for modifying the stable release image):

git branch $branch --track origin/$branch
git checkout $branch

Building the image

After this continue with:

export PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:$PATH
autoreconf -i
./configure
sudo make iso

It should end with something like:

If everything went fine

You will find the ISO in the livecd subdirectory:

#ls -l livecd/
