  • can be detected (for example for purposes of uci-default) by checking if the output of lspci -d ::106 isn't empty (this detects a PCI(e) SATA controller, which then you can use with opkg install kmod-ata-ahci)
  • needs an RTC driver, looks like it's the same as the official IO board / dualeth
  • needs an additional boot option to support the LCD, but probably no extra dtbo or driver
  • a demo app for controlling the LCD, fan and detect the button presses can be downloaded at https://www.waveshare.com/w/upload/7/73/CM4-NAS-Double-Deck_Demo.zip . It's in python. It needs two pip packages. Unfortunately one of them needs to be compiled with C so I can't install it directly. It would be nice if we has a package for these two (spidev, RPi.GPIO). Alternatively, the GPIO can also be accessed using the python's gpiozero package, but then the code in the demo needs to be refactored to use this library instead. I haven't investigated this in detail but the code doesn't seem to be complex.
  • I need to auto-install a couple of extra packages, but this can be done with uci-defaults and they don't need to be built into the rootfs.

RTC driver is the same as "dualeth", just needs slightly different boot config as it's wired to I2C bus 1 instead of 10. The solution is described here as the board in that post appears to be wired the same way: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=293632#p1845336

Instead of

dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,pcf85063a,i2c_csi_dsi

it should be

dtoverlay=i2c-rtc,pcf85063a

It doesn't look like there is a way to override it from within the OS once the system has booted.

Not sure how to integrate it the best, should this really be a separate image?

Maybe edit on first boot? Your task description implies a lot of actions to do on the first boot.

I think this is a good backup option. However I'm starting to think a separate image may make it easier to manage the devices, assuming the build time doesn't increase. too much.

Yes, I'm starting to think a separate image may be a better choice.

I ticked all the checkboxes that work now. Only thing left to do is support for the LCD.

LCD works on ubuntu 22.04. This needs installing:

apt install python3-rpi.gpio python3-spidev
pip3 install pillow
