Fixes #50
@phillxnet , ready for review.

This small pull request (PR) applies the changes discussed in #50:

  • remove kernel-firmware package
  • add raspberrypi-eeprom package

Note that the removal of kernel-firmware drastically reduces the final image size. From kiwi build log, we can see:

INFO: 13:33:23 | --> system data with filesystem overhead needs 2103 MB
INFO: 13:33:23 | --> swap partition adding 2048 MB
INFO: 13:33:23 | --> EFI partition adding 64 MB
INFO: 13:33:23 | Using calculated disk size: 4215 MB

The latter was 5.1 GB prior to this PR.

This was built using kiwi version 9.23.31:

# kiwi-ng --version
KIWI (next generation) version 9.23.31

The resulting .raw image was tested in a KVM VM: it booted, rebooted, and could complete the Rockstor first login procedure successfully.

@FroggyFlox Many thanks for this tidy up. And for your engagement in the linked issue re the firmware question. I think what we have post this pull request is all together more sane; hopefully.

Nice.

And it can only be good for us to minimise our 'drift' from upstream JeOS, at least where we can (I'm thinking of the rsyslog / systemd-log issue here).
