Hi,
Can anyone please provide me guidance on what it takes to install RockyLinux ARM64/aarch64 on RockPi4C ? RockyLinux provides only an .ISO file.
I installed UUByte ISO Editor on my Mac ( UUByte ISO Editor - Easily Edit, Burn, Extract and Create ISO File ) and with it, I installed the Rocky Linux ISO on to my SD Card.
But my Rock Pi4C doesn’t boot up with that SD card as I was hoping to.
Doing some reading, I believe the SD Card has to be partitioned in a specific manner, with all the required bits presented in appropriate partitions.
https://wiki.radxa.com/Rockpi4/partitions
If so, where can one get these bits - first stage loader, U boot image, ATF ?
Appreciate if you someone can educate me if my understanding is correct and what I need to do to accomplish this.
thanks in advance.
An Update:
To build the required images, I followed this documentation on the latest version of Ubuntu VM.
Linux BSP for ROCK Pi
^
That arm64 iso image is not for sbc, it’s for WindowsArm notebooks, because it requires uefi.
Thanks Dante4 for your reply.
Tom Cubie from Radxa replied to a message that I left on their website (rockpi.org ) He asked me to open an new issue/ticket on github with regards to build failure, which I did.
Just wanted to pass it on, incase anyone else is interested.
opened 10:53PM - 19 May 21 UTC
I followed Part 2 of this documentation (non docker method) to build u-boot for … rockpi4c and the build fails.

Here are the details of my Ubuntu-VM:

Here is the message from Radxa team.
I was able to build the u-boot successfully y following the above link.
