Hi all,
New to the tool! I'm planning to use this for setting up a complete build toolchain for Raspberry Pi 3. This means building f.i. ALSA/GStreamer/LADSPA etc. etc. and installing them in the proper rootfs which will be packaged together with the toolchain.
I suspect this is out of the scope of the ct-ng tool ? Maybe someone has ideas or pointers on how to accomplish this ?
Regards
/Robert

You can try Buildroot: https://buildroot.org
You can use ct-ng to generate a toolchain and use it in Buildroot as an
external toolchain. Or you can have Buildroot generate the toolchain for you
(so called internal toolchain).

Thank you Baruch,
Doh! Now I remember I have been looking at buildroot before, I just didn't think of using it in this way 😊

Hi,
I once did something similar for the olinuxino lime A10.
I compiled uboot and a kernel and used an arch linux arm rootfs.
The scripts can be found as a tar.gz
They are probably out of date, but can be modified and can give a
skeleton for you to work with.
http://www.publicsite.org/J05HYYY/software_downloads/olinuxinolime-archlinux.tar.gz
I'm not quite sure about the bootloader in the pi however, whether or
not it can use uboot. The pi needs a blob to run IIRC.
You may also wish to look at https://github.com/RPi-Distro/Pi-gen which
creates the isos for raspbian from the pi foundation.
Josh

In addition to buildroot, you can also use the Yocto Project
(https://www.yoctoproject.org). There are people that have added R-Pi
"layers" for the Raspberry-Pi. One of them is this one:
https://github.com/jumpnow/meta-rpi .
