It is not on a different partition.
It's just a different startup, as it uses rc.d and /dev/harddrive.

I am trying to get SmoothWall to run on Devuan.
In which I'm trying to make a /boot/grub/custom.cfg that boots to /dev/harddisk.
Is this possible ??
Haven't had much luck yet .. hmm~

If you fix your heat/thermal problem so no throttling occurs.
With a simple heatsink.
All this will go away .. hmm~

"is there any good tutorials", Nope
There is like no tutes on writing a deb that I can find.

To me it's looking for a directory to include in the deb.

dh_usrlocal: debian/slstatus/usr/local/bin/slstatus is not a directory

I'd say you need to add in your rules file to create it

mkdir -vp debian/slstatus/usr/local/bin

/usr/local/bin/slstatus only makes sense to me as a program, not a directory

Good luck
It's a matter of play to get it working

Still you don't look at the output of what is actually happening.
Your only looking in the rules files that DOES NOT TELL WHAT ALL that happens.
During your dh_auto_configure from the rules.

Does anyone here know any thing about eudev ??

The peeps on irc @ #devuan-dev sure don't !!
All I get is from gnu_srs tis,
"[03:31:36] <gnu_srs1> ShorTie: fsmithred:
I'll release 3.2.9-8 and 3.2-9-8~beowulf-proposed-updates to unstable and beowulf ASAP."
Tells nothing about nothing.

The heart of this distro, and know body knows nuffin about it, so sad.
So So Sad !!!

Why can I not rebuild it with 'dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b' ??
What kind of convoluted crap does your build system do ??
What ever happened to the KISS method ??

Why does it get built with --disable-dependency-tracking ??
Sortta sounds like it something it should do, to help race conditions maybe.
Or has nobody actually looked at how it is really configured ??
The prefix variable does NOT seemed to be passed properly either, lol.

I mean it's configured with --disable-maintainer-mode, which is not even a valid option for eudev, lol.

That is why I was wondering about chimaera for arm64, as the kernel headers are closer I do believe .. hmm~

Or maybe you could just add it into it ??

psst, The foundation has a newer kernel then in the image.
So don't forget the apt update/upgrade

root is there, just need to make a passwd

passwd

This is like a updated version of the above.
So I took the long weekend to create a Image maker.
While playing with it the foundation opened archives up to arm64.
So the raspberrypi.gpg.key is included, along with a raspi.list.
Thus the kernel and pi stuff comes directly from them.
Or can, I think Devuan over rulez.

You can get the image from my gitlab.

sudo git clone https://github.com/ShorTie8/Devuan-imager

A user devuan/toor has been created, for yucks now, I guess.
I had set it up to test my vcgencmd as a user, but not really needed now.
As it is from the foundation now.
root passwd is also toor.

ssh --no-install-recommends has been installed for headless.
EXTRAS="dhcpcd5 fake-hwclock ntp mlocate parted wpasupplicant".

Made up a init for growpart.
So root is AutoMagically expanded @ run level 2.

Switched over to UUID for cmdline.txt and fstab.
The growpart init checks fdisk for mmcblk.
If there does 'growpart /dev/mmcblk0 2'.
Otherwise does 'growpart /dev/sda 2'.
So as soon as they get usb boot pushed thru, should be able to use the Image on a sdcard or usb device.
Pleaze be nice and hook up any extra drives after 1st boot.

Have a Great Day

Ok, care to try sumfin for me ??

echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="vchiq",GROUP="video",MODE="0660"' > /etc/udev/rules.d/10-vchiq-permissions.rules 
echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="vcio",GROUP="video",MODE="0660"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/10-vchiq-permissions.rules 
echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="vc-mem",GROUP="video",MODE="0660"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/10-vchiq-permissions.rules

And see if it works.
Most likely need to re-boot.

So I love my pi's
If only they loved the mainline kernel as much.

Thus linux-p4-64 and pi4-64-bootloader.
linux-p4-64 is the foundations linux sources compiled arm64 for the pi4.

pi4-64-bootloader is the other needed /boot files.
ie: fixup4*, start4*, cmdline.txt and a modified config.txt for arm64.
Also included are the brcmfmac43455 files.

So with these 2 deb's

linux-image-p4-64_5.4.40+-0_arm64.deb
pi4-64-bootloader_20200516-0_arm64.deb

You can debootstrap a sdcard with Devuan arm64 for the pi4.

So the tool to use is Devuan-pi4-os64

git clone https://github.com/ShorTie8/Devuan-pi4-os64
cd Devuan-pi4-os64
./Devuan-pi4-os64.sh

It grabs debootstrap_1.0.123+devuan1 and uses it.
You just need to supply a arm64 enviroment.

A arm64 version of the vcgencmd command is included too.
Along with dhcpcd5 ntp mlocate ssh wpasupplicant.
So you can go headless, if you want.

"If when running vcgencmd on a raspberry pi you get VCHI initialization failed then you need to add the video group to your user."

I've uploaded my Devuan-pi4-os64 to github.
https://github.com/ShorTie8/Devuan-pi4-os64

With in it is vcgencmd.tar.xz
Which I do believe will work for you.

untar with

tar xf vcgencmd.tar.xz -C /

contains:
usr/bin/vcgencmd
usr/lib/libvcos.so
usr/lib/libvchiq_arm.so

" (the HDD needed its own power supply)."

That is the best idea imho
Provide the hard drive power.
Pi's cut usb power, long before the green light blinks 10 times.
Saying it's safe to power off.
