Hello List,
I'm looking for the best tool to prepare and apply firmware images
based on Buildroot. I know that is a complex matter, but what I'm
asking here is an advice.
After several hours of searching, I finally found what seems a good
piece of software:
https://github.com/fhunleth/fwup
It's maintained and it has a good integration with Buildroot.
I know that Thomas Petazzoni wrote this one:
https://www.gitorious.org/embedded-linux-firmware-upgrade-tool
But It seems not maintained anymore.
Any advice on this matter?
Thank you for your time!

There is also https://github.com/sbabic/swupdate, which was presented
last week at ELCE, see
http://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/SoftwareUpdateForEmbedded.pdf.

Really interesting! I'll try it as soon as possible! Any plan to
include it in buildroot?
Thank you for your time!

I think Romain Naour said he had started to look into it. Not sure how
far his efforts have gone so far, though.

Yes indeed swupdate is very interesting but it need some work to be done before
being integrated to Buildroot.
I have sent to the list my work on swupdate packaging:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/401270/
It's completely untested, so be free to resend a new version if you can test it :)
Best regards,
