Hi Martin,
Thanks for your response.
Yesterday I got in touch with Ondřej from the osbuild-composer team (CC).
He helped me switch over from Lorax to osbuild and I was able to get an
aarch64 image built with it.
You are most likely correct about the RPi images being a bit special
since the image produced did not boot properly on my RPi.
I have just tried out plain osbuild as you suggested and opened a new issue.
osbuild seems like it could be very useful for us.
I would like to help get RPi builds working successfully with it, please
let me know if I can help. I can help test builds at the very least.
Thank you,
Fabrizio

Hi,
I work on a project that is basically a replacement to Lorax which
you've already tried. The whole project is called OSBuild:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/osbuild__;!!IrdRlI43zQ!ORXj3tyeImuKmUXn3PLLTh0JjjINbCDbXeVm22t4f8IuqLzf-xxIbcOnDacedVWuipi5Ee0JuRyICw$
and it consists of two parts. One is a low level CLI tool which you can
use to produce images described by a JSON file:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/osbuild/osbuild/tree/master/samples__;!!IrdRlI43zQ!ORXj3tyeImuKmUXn3PLLTh0JjjINbCDbXeVm22t4f8IuqLzf-xxIbcOnDacedVWuipi5Ee00DD1KgA$
and the second part is an HTTP service just like Lorax that you can use
with your blueprints:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/osbuild/osbuild-composer__;!!IrdRlI43zQ!ORXj3tyeImuKmUXn3PLLTh0JjjINbCDbXeVm22t4f8IuqLzf-xxIbcOnDacedVWuipi5Ee2AsmIxNw$
The difference from Lorax is that osbuild-composer will produce the JSON
file I mentioned above and it will call osbuild.
Both are packaged in Fedora:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/osbuild__;!!IrdRlI43zQ!ORXj3tyeImuKmUXn3PLLTh0JjjINbCDbXeVm22t4f8IuqLzf-xxIbcOnDacedVWuipi5Ee0J4-qfPA$
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/golang-github-osbuild-composer__;!!IrdRlI43zQ!ORXj3tyeImuKmUXn3PLLTh0JjjINbCDbXeVm22t4f8IuqLzf-xxIbcOnDacedVWuipi5Ee0Af3nKpQ$
and the second one will soon be replaced by less confusing name:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/osbuild-composer__;!!IrdRlI43zQ!ORXj3tyeImuKmUXn3PLLTh0JjjINbCDbXeVm22t4f8IuqLzf-xxIbcOnDacedVWuipi5Ee1uvPw9Rw$
but the content of the packages should be the same at this point.
I'd, personally, recommend you to take a look at plain osbuild
(https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/osbuild/osbuild__;!!IrdRlI43zQ!ORXj3tyeImuKmUXn3PLLTh0JjjINbCDbXeVm22t4f8IuqLzf-xxIbcOnDacedVWuipi5Ee1LyEDaxw$
) and ask questions in a Github issue.
Support for aarch64 in osbuild-composer should hopefully land soon, but
if I remember correctly RPi images are somewhat special so even once we
have support for aarch64 we would still need to make sure it works on RPi.
Hope you find osbuild useful and feel free to ask questions.
Martin
