Copy kernel over Eth and boot

On Host:

./build.sh k deploy
cp -va rz_linux-cip/.deploy/smarc-rzg2l /var/lib/tftpboot/

On Board:

FYI, On SMARC EVK, from u-boot, you can select sd0 device to SDHI0 or eMMC by controlling P41_1 without changing SW1.2. We just need to configure P41_1 as GPIO in u-boot and drive P41_1 for device selection.

Boot from different partitions. Files kept in /boot Look for both r9a07g044l2-smarc.dtb and Image-r9a07g044l2-smarc.dtb(what is explained in the ReleaseNote)

Program BSP into eMMC over Ethernet

On board:

mkdir -p /mnt/mmcblk0p1 ; mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/mmcblk0p1
mkdir -p /mnt/mmcblk0p2 ; mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /mnt/mmcblk0p2
mkdir -p /mnt/mmcblk0p3 ; mount /dev/mmcblk0p3 /mnt/mmcblk0p3
mkdir -p /mnt/mmcblk0p4 ; mount /dev/mmcblk0p4 /mnt/mmcblk0p4

ifconfig    #  to get the ip address for SCP

On PC:

  • Connect with WinSCP to board, and drag file core-image-qt-smarc-rzg2l.tar.bz2 into /mnt/mmcblk0p1
  • Use scp to copy to board ** scp core-image-qt-smarc-rzg2l.tar.bz2 [email protected]/mnt (command does not work yet)

On board:

$ cd /mnt/mmcblk0p1
$ tar -xf core-image-qt-smarc-rzg2l.tar.gz
$ touch "core-image-qt-smarc-rzg2l_vlp_v3.0.6-update3.txt"

$ sync ; cd / ;  umount /mnt/mmcblk0p1
$ reboot
