Beyond Buildroot
================
Boot the generated images
-------------------------
NFS boot
~~~~~~~~
To achieve NFS-boot, enable _tar root filesystem_ in the _Filesystem
images_ menu.
After a complete build, just run the following commands to setup the
NFS-root directory:
-------------------
sudo tar -xavf /path/to/output_dir/rootfs.tar -C /path/to/nfs_root_dir
-------------------
Remember to add this path to +/etc/exports+.
Then, you can execute a NFS-boot from your target.
Chroot
------
If you want to chroot in a generated image, then there are few thing
you should be aware of:
* you should setup the new root from the _tar root filesystem_ image;
* either the selected target architecture is compatible with your host
machine, or you should use some +qemu-*+ binary and correctly set it
within the +binfmt+ properties to be able to run the binaries built
for the target on your host machine;
* Buildroot does not currently provide +host-qemu+ and +binfmt+
correctly built and set for that kind of use.
