1. Build

$ uname -a
Linux n2MnJaro 6.3.8-1-MANJARO-ARM #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jun 16 16:17:17 UTC 2023 aarch64 GNU/Linux
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/7Ji/amlogic-s9xxx-archlinuxarm.git

All of the build scripts should be run as a user that can use sudo and never as root. They will refuse to work if being run as root or with sudo. You might need to to set the following option in sudoers if you want to keep it in background to cancel the timeout: Defaults passwd_timeout=0

2. Before the first build, make sure these build dependencies are installed:

sudo pacman -Syu arch-install-scripts \
                 base-devel \
                 dosfstools \
                 git \
                 go \
                 parted \
                 uboot-tools \
                 xz \
                 wget
