Hi,
Which rootfs/hwpacks are used to create master images? Are they document somewhere?
Very important question with partly scary answers.
How do we produce those?
It's done manually. Dave is working on a script to automate master image builds.
How are we deciding when and what to upgrade?
Master images are known good images. We update them when really needed, thus using older rootfs/hwpack combination.
What's the roll out process and how do we track what we have were?
Dave is in charge to create those images. We planned to track master information on the wiki: https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Validation/LabHardware#Master_Image
It isn't done yet.
Also, how do we systematically select the rootfs/hwpacks used etc...
It seems to be trial by error.
And maybe Ubuntu team help making this reproducible? Would it be worth to have a lava-master rootfs devbuild?
Master images, as they are today, need to be documented, built automatically and reproduced. I'm not sure we have this plan blueprinted or in a bug. I need to check.
