Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAPL138
Hi,
I'm trying to learn to use MityDSP-L138F, an evaluation board that uses TI's OMAP-L138. I don't know if this is the right place to ask for support, but I'll give it a try.
I've been using the board for over a week now, but I've made very little progress so far. I'm pretty unexperienced and the tutorials provided by Critical Link are insufficient. In my host PC, I have CCS v7 running on Windows 7, and I'm able to debug ARM9 and C6748 programs that simply print "Hello World" using an XDS100v2 JTAG debugger. My host PC is also connected to the board through UART, and I can reach the U-boot commands. (However, U-Boot does not boot to Linux, since the "bootcmd" environment variable was modified before I was given the board. When I try restoring bootcmd, U-Boot says it's "erasing SPI flash" and stays there forever.)
Now, what I need to do is burn a flash memory (not sure whether NAND or NOR) with the simple program that prints out "Hello World", but I don't know how to do so. I've looked it up through the forums and documentation of both MityDSP and OMAP-L138 EVM. I know that I need to convert the *.out file built by CCS to a binary using the AISgen tool. I also know I can flash it through either the JTAG and CCS or the UART interface. However, I can't follow the instructions provided in the wiki pages.
Last but not the least, may I use the documentation provided in this site, or do I have to stick with Critical Link?
Thanks in advance.
