#REDIRECT [[Alpine Linux in a chroot]]
 
The Build Environment will be called [[#Create_a_build_environment|BE]] from now on.<br> You will need a few Gigabytes to have enough pace for kernel compiling and storing all the binary packages and iso image.
 
= Create a build environment  =
 
We are setting up our [[#Create_a_build_environment|BE]] in chroot.<br>
 
'''Note:''' The variables below:
 
*'''${build_dir}''' = You can name it whatever you like.
*'''${mirror}''' = Should be replaced with one of the available alpine-mirrors:
 
{{Mirrors}}
 
<br> Lets start by geting the latest apk static binary:
 
wget ${mirror}/v1.9/apk.static
chmod +x ./apk.static
 
We are setting up a basic chroot:
 
mkdir ${build_dir}
./apk.static --repo ${mirror}/v1.9/packages/core --root $PWD/${build_dir} add --initdb build-base git abuild
mkdir -p ./${build_dir}/proc
mount --bind /proc ./${build_dir}/proc
 
Lets setup our needed devices:
 
mknod -m 666 ./${build_dir}/dev/full c 1 7
mknod -m 777 ./${build_dir}/dev/null c 1 3
mknod -m 666 ./${build_dir}/dev/ptmx c 5 2
mknod -m 644 ./${build_dir}/dev/random c 1 8
mknod -m 644 ./${build_dir}/dev/urandom c 1 9
mknod -m 666 ./${build_dir}/dev/zero c 1 5
mknod -m 666 ./${build_dir}/dev/tty c 5 0
 
We need or dns servers and root dir:
 
cp /etc/resolv.conf ./${build_dir}/etc/
mkdir -p ./${build_dir}/root
 
We are setting up apk mirrors:
 
mkdir -p ./${build_dir}/etc/apk
echo "${mirror}/v1.9/packages/core" &gt; ./${build_dir}/etc/apk/repositories
echo "${mirror}/v1.9/packages/extra" &gt;&gt; ./${build_dir}/etc/apk/repositories
 
At this point you should be able to enter your chroot:
 
chroot ./${build_dir} /bin/sh
