Dustin 37ef563b5d Switch to Openbox 
Matchbox Window Manager, being designed for mobile devices, does not
handle multiple monitors well.  It manages the monitors together as one
giant screen, which will make it extremely difficult to manage separate
Firefox windows on each screen.  Openbox is almost as lightweight as
Matchbox, but it works significantly better for this use case.

Basement Hud Network-Booted OS

Customized Fedora-based operating system distributed as an immutable root filesystem image.

Building

Must run on a Fedora host or privileged container.

Build the root filesystem image:

make rootfs

This will create an _build/rootfs directory containing the root filesystem hierarchy. The _build/rootfs/boot directory contains the necessary files to boot the system:

  • efi: This directory contains the Raspberry Pi firmware files
  • initramfs.img: Early userspace image
  • vmlinuz: Kernel image
  • basementhud.squashfs: Root filesystem image

The Raspberry Pi firmware, initramfs image, and kernel image files must be served by a TFTP, while the rootfs image is served by NBD.

Build the initramfs image:

make initramfs
