How to install GCC and/or apt on embedded linux Raspberry Pi
I have a pre-configured linux distro on a raspberry pi (used for a bitcoin miner). The problem is that this distro is very minimal, only has busybox for basic commands. It doesn't have a package manager and it doesn't even have a gcc compiler. So my target is to install a gcc compiler on it so I can go further and install other software.
So I'm basically limited to these commands from busybox:
root@raspberrypi:~# ls /bin
addgroup fgrep ping6
adduser grep ps
ash gunzip pwd
busybox gzip rm
cat hostname rmdir
chattr ip sed
chgrp kill sh
chmod ln sleep
chown login stty
cp ls su
cpio mkdir sync
date mknod tar
dd mktemp tinylogin
delgroup more touch
deluser mount true
df mountpoint umount
dmesg mountpoint.sysvinit uname
dnsdomainname mv usleep
dumpkmap netstat vi
echo pidof zcat
egrep pidof.sysvinit
false ping
root@raspberrypi:~# ls -l /usr/bin

What I have tried so far is to download a new busybox from here which includes more commands, most notably rpm (still lacks dpkg though)

BusyBox is a multi-call binary that combines many common Unix
utilities into a single executable. Most people will create a
link to busybox for each function they wish to use and BusyBox
will act like whatever it was invoked as.

Also tried installing apt-rpm to get apt-get, but it misses a shared libary
root@raspberrypi:~# apt-get
apt-get: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/liblua-5.1.so: internal error
can someone help me on all this??

you've tagged this post as "yocto". So the only thing I can advice you is using this wonderful tool :) you don't want to compile your tools from your raspi, but from your killer linux machine :)
first, make sure you have all the prerequisists. for fedora:
sudo yum install gawk make wget tar bzip2 gzip python unzip perl patch \
diffutils diffstat git cpp gcc gcc-c++ glibc-devel texinfo chrpath \
ccache perl-Data-Dumper perl-Text-ParseWords perl-Thread-Queue socat
for ubuntu / debian:
sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib \
build-essential chrpath socat
then, you can get yocto from git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky -b daisy
then, you need to get the raspberrypi layer and its dependencies:
cd poky
git clone http://git.yoctoproject.org/git/meta-raspberrypi -b daisy
git clone git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded -b daisy
then, setup the build environment:
source oe-init-build-env rpi-build
here rpi-build will be the name of the build directory, it can be whatever you want. this will setup all the environment variables needed to use yocto, andmove you to the newly create build directory.
edit conf/bblayers.conf and add the needed layers to BBLAYERS. it should look like something like this:
BBLAYERS ?= " \
/path/to/poky/meta \
/path/to/poky/meta-yocto \
/path/to/poky/meta-yocto-bsp \
/path/to/poky/meta-openembedded/meta-oe \
/path/to/poky/meta-raspberrypi \
"
then, edit conf/local.conf set the MACHINE variabel to raspberrypi:
MACHINE ?= "raspberrypi"
you can also tell yocto to generate deb files instead of the default rpms by changing:
PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_rpm"
to:
PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_deb"
in order to quickly have dpkg present in the build, just add the following line in your conf/local.conf
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL="dpkg"
and create a basic image:
bitbake rpi-basic-image
this will take some time.... a LOT of time in fact (yocto will generate the whole rootfilesystem, it will download the sources and compile them, will create deb packages for each of them, and will generate a flashable s image).
during that time I suggest you read the yocto documentation in order to understand how to add more software to the resulting image and / or customise it. Explaining how yocto works can't just be an answer in stackoverflow you'll need to read the documentation and practice a little bit.
but the main thing to understand is that yocto provides receipes. Basically, a receipe describes how to get a packages and how to compile it. a simple example of receipe can be found in:
meta/recipes-devtools/rpm/rpmresolve_1.0.bb
the good thing with yocto, is that you can easily add your own receipes. layers provide supersets of receipes, they also allow customisation. here, we added the raspberrypi layer in order to add support for the raspberry board. the raspberry layer provides all the receipes needed to configure the kernel, and the bootloader etc...
once compilation is done, in order to flash the resulting sd image just do:
dd bs=4M if=/path/to/rpi-build/tmp/deploy/images/raspberrypi/rpi-basic-image-raspberrypi.rpi-sdimg of=/dev/sd?
where "sd?" is your (unmounted) sdcard (think about saving it if needed) plug back your sdcard to your raspi, boot it.
in order to find out the raspi ip, you can scan your network for open ssh ports:
nmap -p 22 --open -sV YOU_SUBNET_ADDRESS/SUBNET_SIZE
example:
nmap -p 22 --open -sV 192.168.1.0/24
ssh root@RASPI-IP
and voila !
next time you'll need to build a new package, you can do:
bitbake package-name
and then just scp the resulting .deb file (from tmp/work/armv6-vfp-poky-linux-gnueabi/PACKAGE_NAME/PACKAGE_VERSION/deploy-debs/armv6-vfp/PACKAGE.ipk) to the raspi and use dpkg to install it. you can also create your own image based on rpi-basic-image and adding your own selection of packages.
Exmple with htop:
bitbake htop
scp ./tmp/work/armv6-vfp-poky-linux-gnueabi/htop/1.0.3-r0/deploy-debs/armv6-vfp/htop_1.0.3-r0_armv6-vfp.deb root@myraspi
yocto will be very helpful to ease the cross compilation process for you.
