Spearf1sh Embedded Hacking Tool and Distro. The ultimate embedded hacking tool designed for Zynq and Pynq development boards.
This specialized distro leverages the power of ARM Cortex-A SoCs and FPGAs to provide a robust platform for embedded Linux applications.
With easy installation and comprehensive support for multiple Xilinx Zynq 7020 based platforms, Spearf1sh is the go-to choice for developers looking to push the boundaries of hardware customization and performance.

This might take up to 2 hours.
If successful the sd card image is in $HOME/spearf1sh/work/images/sdcard.img

Spearf1sh is largely built around the Zynq and Pynq development boards, which are Xilinx Zynq 7020-based ARM Cortex-A SoCs with an FPGA.
This allows for embedded linux to run on the hard-core ARM and the FPGA to handle whatever you like.
Buildroot is the embedded linux build platform tool of choice. However, due to the fact that you change the hardware in a FGPA, to buildroot, this looks like you have made a new “board.” Which, kinda, you did.
The Spearf1sh Linux has been tested and is supported by the following Xilinx Zynq 7020 based platforms. These can be purchased via multiple vendors and are regularly available on the Digilent store, Digikey, Farnell and Element 14, Mouser and sometimes on Amazon, Ebay and Aliexpress.
root:f1sh!
Don’t raspberry pi me.
If you need to rebuild the default spearf1sh image, without starting from scratch, run the installer script with -x
.
By default the installer will download the open source buildroot packages to $HOME/.spearf1sh/buildroot_dl
. The download cache is not removed by default to increase build time.
You must manually delete if you want to reclaim the storage.
Speaking of storage, have at least 20GB of space to do more, but why stop there? Spearf1sh might grow, so get some more. But 20 might be fine, for now.
