Include dosfstools in the image

Postby scarpino » Fri Aug 23, 2013 11:03 pm

Hi all,
I'm not sure this is the right place for this request, but I'm new here and I didn't find a better place for such request.

I just installed ALARM on a BBB without net and I had to download the dosfstools from another PC and install it on the BBB to format the first partition on the eMMC. So, I guess that package is a valid candidate to the ALARM image people download.

My two cents.

Probably were missing wget too. I'll be reworking the BBB setup soon.

Hi,
well, IMHO wget isn't really needed in the image because if you want to use wget you have a network. So, you could use pacman to install wget first :-)
