# Parch Linux RISC-V RootFS Builder

Useful scripts for building and running Parch Linux RISC-V Qcow image.


> This is only for Testing Parch Gnu/Linux on Risc-V.


This Script is forked from [Archriscv Scriptlet](https://github.com/CoelacanthusHex/archriscv-scriptlet)

## Prerequisite

* arch-install-scripts
* parted
* git
* qemu-img
* qemu-system-riscv
* riscv64-linux-gnu-gcc
* devtools-riscv64 ([AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/devtools-riscv64))


## Todo

- [ ] Add devtools-riscv64 to ppr
- [ ] Add Risc-v to ppr (the Arch)
- [ ] Write wiki page for Parch Risc-v


## Build Step

```bash
./mkrootfs
./mkimg
```

## Start QEMU

> [!IMPORTANT]
> You must use fallback initrd first, and re-generate initramfs with `mkinitcpio -P` to use non-fallback version later.

```bash
./startqemu.sh [qcow image file]
```
