I already did this a few of weeks ago to help out another user. I don't
have an PI2, but he said it worked. From memory 20Mb was big enough for
the new installer, I made no changes to the SD card partitioning. I
didn't change the all the files you have.
The top level of the rootfs of my RPI2 installer is this:
Code:
--------------------

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 501 Feb 5 23:31 udhcpc.script
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 2048 Feb 5 23:31 www
--------------------
The /sbin/init file shows you what is needed.
Only minor changes are needed to create-sdcard-soa-rpi.sh
I left the contents of /www intact:
Code:
--------------------
/mnt/www# ls -l
total 94
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3662 Feb 5 23:31 favicon.ico
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3119 Feb 5 23:31 index.html
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3801 Feb 5 23:31 installing2.html
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3564 Feb 5 23:31 installing.html
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 53468 Feb 5 23:31 soa-installer-web
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 20640 Feb 5 23:31 soa-logo-533x342.jpg
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1632 Feb 5 23:31 stylesheet.css
--------------------
AFAIK the crucial program "soa-installer-web" runs OK on the RPi2:
Code:
--------------------
/mnt/www# file soa-installer-web
soa-installer-web: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, EABI5 version 1 (SYSV),
statically linked, stripped
