Dedicated SBC Camera Monitor

A guide for setting up a dedicated SBC (here beaglebone) that will monitor the video feed from a camera that you choose. I'll also include some steps on getting a custom kernel for I2C. The WM will be DWM, terminal ST, and browser will be Surf. It will be a minimal installation with no DE, no extra programs. You will save RAM here, over an installation of LXDE, the default for the Beaglebone Black

Setup

Requirements:

• <=4GB SD Card
• SBC or other computer
• Internet connection

Install beaglebone black using elinux.com's BeagleBoardDebian page.

Use the direct image (under Demo, below NetInstall). Not the netinstall, which is slower, unless you know what you are doing.

After you boot from SD card, migrate to devuan using this guide:

Next complete the following commands

 su root

 apt-get install xorg libx11-dev libxft-dev libxinerama-dev gcc make htop sudo tcpdump

Complete these for Surf

 apt-get install libwebkitgtk-dev libgtk2.0-dev linux-headers-$(uname -r)
