Hi Miroslav,

Thanks for the reply,

I have verified checksum of the SDK and its same

b9cdf2cbec8014750fde35d9e32674f4 ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00-Linux-x86-Install.bin

but when i try to install i got the error segmentation fault.

This seems to be a common issue when trying to install the AM335x SDK on Ubuntu 14.04. Please take a look at this thread: http://e2e.ti.com/support/arm/sitara_arm/f/791/t/335816.aspx

Best regards,

Hi,

Have you tried "strace" command to check what is causing the problem?

ubuntu:~/am335x/own/linux-sdk$ strace ./ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00-Linux-x86-Install.bin

Hi,

I have tried "starce"

 strace -o trace ./ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00-Linux-x86-Install.bin

and i have attached the output of trace verify that and please let me know where i am going wrong6278.trace.txt

Hi,

Try to use "--forcehost" option,

ubuntu:~/am335x/own/linux-sdk$ ./ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00-Linux-x86-Install.bin  --forcehost --debugconsole

Hi,

I had tied your options but it shows error like,

ubuntu:~/am335x/own/linux-sdk$ ./ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00-Linux-x86-Install.bin --forcehost --debugconsole

Error: There has been an error.
Unknown option: --forcehost
Use --help to get a list of valid options

Hi,

Ok, It seems the "--forcehost" option is not supported by the bin,

ubuntu:~/am335x/own/linux-sdk$ ./ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00-Linux-x86-Install.bin  --debugconsole

What is your host machine (32 bit or 64 bit) that you are trying to install bin?

Always, I am suggesting to you that use recommended host machine for your developments & it may give any problem in future even after you fix this issue,

Do you have any intended reason to use ubuntu 14.04?

hi,

Thanks for the reply

I am using 32 bit machine it self, and i dint have any particular reason to use ubuntu 14.04, i am using it because it is the present long term support version as said in the document

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Sitara_Linux_SDK_Getting_Started_Guide

which consists

"There are many, many ways to get access to a Linux host. We simply can’t validate all possibilities and iterations, therefore we focus on validating using Ubuntu as the host Linux distribution, running either natively or in a Virtual Machine. We validate the Long-term Support (LTS) versions of Ubuntu at the time of a SDK release (for example, at the time of this writing, Ubuntu 12.04 is the only LTS version)."

Now i will download and install the Ubuntu 12.04 and i will let you know the status

Hi,

I have installed ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00-Linux-x86-Install.bin in ubuntu 12.04 LTE and it got installed successfully.
