arch-airpi-Package

This repository contains everything to make an Arch-package that contains the configuration for turning your Raspberry Pi into a LowCost-FullHD-Digital-FPV-Transmitter. German discussion on the topic is available here.

how to use

using a prebuild package (preferred)

You can use my arch-airpi-Repo to get a prebuild package. The README there contains a short howto.

It is the preferred way of getting the package, because it is easy to get updates, even if you are not familiar with git and makepkg.

making your own package (for experienced users)

You can simply create the package yourself if you have cloned this repo on to your Raspberry Pi. By typing makepkg while being in the folder where the PKGBUILD-file is placed, all required steps for building the package are done.

If you want to install the required dependencies, add the option -s.

If you want to install the package directly, add the option -i, or otherwise you have to invoke pacman to install it, for example with pacman -U airpi-0.2-1-armv6h.pkg.tar.xz.

using a prebuild package without internet connection (not preferred)

If your Raspberry Pi is not connected to the internet in special cases, you can use the raw package out of my arch-airpi-Repo. You have to get the *.pkg.tar.xz manually on to your Pi (e.g. USB storage) and then install it directly, for example with pacman -U airpi-0.2-1-armv6h.pkg.tar.xz.
