Installing

How to install Trisquel 10 (etiona) on ARM SBCs

If you're doing that on Parabola, you need to enable etiona support: 

# cd /usr/share/debootstrap/scripts/
# ln -s trisquel etiona

Then you can install Trisquel as usual: 

# qemu-img create -f raw storage.img 2G
# fdisk storage.img # create 1 partition
# udisksctl loop-setup -f storage.img
# mkdir rootfs
# mkfs.ext4 -O ^metadata_csum -O ^64bit /dev/loop0p1
# mount /dev/loop0p1 rootfs
# mkdir -p rootfs/usr/bin
# debootstrap --foreign --arch armhf etiona rootfs
# cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static rootfs/usr/bin
# LANG=C.UTF-8 chroot rootfs qemu-arm-static /bin/bash
# export TERM=xterm-color
# /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage

You then need to install a bootloader and create the extlinux.conf file in /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf and install the right symlinks to make the computer boot.
