Hello!
We recently bought the OMAP-L138 dev kit to try and get it up and running to evaluate it for a new application and we are struggling through the getting started guides. We started Processor SDK Linux Software Developer’s Guide and we are walking through the Getting Started Guide. So far we have run into a few issues:
(1) Booting the Dev Kit into Linux. I can use the SDK Create SD Card Script with the prebuilt images and it seems to create it correctly, but boots only to uboot. Based on some e2e forum posts we believe this is because the old uboot is being loaded from NAND and this is from 2010 and cannot load the more recent builds. It gives the typical "Unable to read uImage from MMC0:1" that others are seeing. What is the best way to update the Uboot in Nand? Also, I tried changing the DIP switch SW1 to OFF OFF OFF ON OFF OFF OFF OFF to try and get it to load UBoot from the SD card and I get no output. Where is the documentation around the DIP switch? Essentially just trying to get off the ground but I cant figure out where I went astray.
(2) Problems running setup script. It had issues finding uboot-make. it suggested I load u-boot-tools instead and after I hand installed that the setup script seemed to work.
(3) Top level make file didnt work for me. I think it needed linux installed first? Error it gave is "make: *** No rule to make target 'linux-dtbs', needed by 'linux'. Stop."
(4) I tried to rebuild the filesystem with these instructions. I was able to get down to the command "MACHINE=am57xx-evm bitbake arago-core-tisdk-image" but this ran for a long time and then threw the error saying it couldnt find the directory tisdk/build/arago-tmp-external-linaro-toolchain/work/x86_64-linux/ti-cgt6x-native/1_8.1.3-r0/ti-cgt6x-8.1.3/ti-cgt-c6000_8.1.3/bin/. This seems like a temp directory created by the script itself so this seems strange. I also understand that Im using a different dev kit so I tried the following commands (not very clear from documentation what the right format of this command is) and also got errors. "MACHINE=omapl138-lcdk bitbake arago-core-tisdk-image" and "MACHINE=omapl138 bitbake arago-core-tisdk-image"
Essentially, really struggling with getting this up and running. Any help on this would be much appreciated!
