Domanda

Is it possible to execute buildroot and have it skip the deployment stage?

In LTIB you simply add --no-deploy.

It's the most expensive step in building and 99 out of 100 times, I'm not interested in the final image because I'm using NFS to mount the target directory during development.

È stato utile?

Soluzione

You could remove all the BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_FOO variables from the .config

If you're doing NFS mount, then you have to create at least a tarball image. Using output/target as your NFS mountpoint is entirely incorrect: the permissions/owernship are not correct, and device files are not present in output/target. Only the images generated by Buildroot have those things correct.

We even committed today a Buildroot change that strongly warns users not to use output/target as their root filesystem: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=9226a9907c4eb0fffab777f50e88b74aa14d1737
