Bug Description
This bug is a metabug and a holding spot for all patches to port the installation system to the iMX51. Current status of each module is below:
ubuntu-seeds:
- PENDING MERGE: Add kernel
base-installer:
- PENDING MERGE: Add imx51 support
- PENDING MERGE: Add full ARM support
debian-installer:
- PENDING MERGE: Patches for adding imx51 varient, creating cdrom and netinstall images
- TODO: Create a dd'able blob for image creation. Depends on fconfig/fis tools
libdebian-
- PENDING MERGE: Patches for adding new subarchitecture imx51
flash-kernel:
- TODO: Support for updating the Babbage boards kernel, writing
These patches extend debain-installer to add support for the imx51 ARM platform, which is necessary for alternate images to be usable on the iMX51. As these touch very specific parts of d-i which only affect the ARM architecture, the risk of merging is low. Furthermore, without these merges, the iMX51 platform will not be able to have a function d-i, or netinstall images.
