Mender

Rugpi can be used to build images for use with Mender's device management solution. Using Rugpi over Mender's conversion approach has the advantage that Rugpi's modern image building workflow and state management can be used. In addition, it works for 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS, which mender-convert does not support,1 and on newer Raspberry Pi's the tryboot feature can be used to deploy updates to the boot partition, including changes to device tree overlays in config.txt.

To apply updates via Mender, a custom Mender update module is necessary.
