Raspbery Pi USB Gadget Image Builder

A script to add USB Ethernet Gadget configuration to a standard Raspbian Lite SD Card image. This should work with Raspberry Pi Zero, Zero W and 4.

Currently only tested on Linux and with Docker Desktop + WSL on Windows 10, but should also run on OSx

Requirements

  • Docker
  • expect

Install

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/hardillb/rpi-gadget-image-creator.git

Copy the raspbian lite image into the rpi-gadget-image-creator directory.

Running

./setup.sh 2019-09-26-raspbian-buster-lite.img

To build a 64bit OS image you need to add -64 before the image name. 64bit versions will run on Pi 3 and Pi 4 hardware.

./setup.sh -64 2020-08-20-raspios-buster-arm64.img

Once complete you can write the image file to a SD Card with any of the usual tools e.g. dd or balena-etch. You can find instructions on the Raspberry Pi website here

TODO

Look at repackaging everything into an extention to DockerPi so the whole thing runs in the container.
