📦 RPIImage

Declarative, reproducible, CI-built Raspberry Pi OS images for production and development.

Current release: v0.5.0

🛠 Add this repo to Raspberry Pi Imager

You need Raspberry Pi Imager v2.0.3 or later — older versions don’t persist a custom repository between launches.

One-click (recommended)

  1. Open in Raspberry Pi Imager → Imager opens with our repo pre-loaded and asks you to confirm.
  2. Pick your target device → pick an image → flash.

Manual setup (alternative)

  1. Open Imager → Settings (⚙) → Custom repository.
  2. Paste the catalog URL and close the dialog — Imager reloads the OS list automatically:
    https://bauer-group.github.io/XPD-RPIImage/rpi-imager.json
  3. Our variants appear under CHOOSE OS → BAUER GROUP.

🧷 Flashing a Compute Module (CM4 / CM5 eMMC)

  1. Put the carrier board in rpiboot mode:
    • CM4 IO-Board: fit the jumper on J2 (Disable eMMC Boot).
    • CM5 IO-Board: bridge the nRPIBOOT test pad (or set the fit-jumper where provided).
  2. Connect the USB-C slave port (not the host USB) to your machine.
  3. Power the board. RPi Imager (≥ 1.8.5) detects the CM as "RPi" mass storage via its built-in rpiboot.
  4. Flash as usual.
  5. Remove the jumper, re-power, boot.
