Create the F17 Raspberry Pi image

Create the F17 Raspberry Pi image

Project Description

Based on feedback on the F14 Raspberry Pi image, create an F17 alpha/beta image for the Raspberry Pi.

This will involve modifying (or creating) a script to produce the Raspi rootfs, putting the rootfs and image into the final format for distribution.

Note: the final version of F17 won't be ready until just after this course ends. The image will need to be based on the F17 alpha/beta package set.

Expected outcome: a F17 image creation script.

• 0.2 Edit the script that will addresses the previous issues that can be used in the F17 alpha/beta image for Raspberry Pi
• 0.3 Test and complete a error free script that will be able to be implemented in the final distribution of a F17 image for the Raspberry Pi
