SDK will does not start

I down loaded ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00-Linux-x86-Install to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.  I tried to run it using the following: 

chmod +x ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00-Linux-x86-Install

sudo ./ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00-Linux-x86-Install

Nothing happened.

It seems like the same problem as this post:

However, I have the correct version ( Ubuntu 10.04 LTS) so I am not sure what the problem is.

  • The link you mentioned is an excellent link. The link mentioned a possibility of an incorrect download. I have seen this type of problem before, what is the size of the file that you downloaded?

  • Thank you for the quick response.  

    File Name: ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00-Linux-x86-Install

    File size: 1.7 GB (1856281576 bytes)

  • Here is the file information from the command ls -l:

    -rwxr-xr-x 1 golson golson 1856281576 2013-01-07 23:25 ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.0

  • That is the same size I have, so you have the full file, next run the md5sum on the installer program

    md5sum ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00-Linux-x86-Install

    should give you this,
    990e690eea37dacb911fd036dae5820c  ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00-Linux-x86-Install

    The md5sum number is in the md5sums.txt on the download page for the SDK.

    If the md5sum number is good the next question is if you have enough space left on your drive to expand the SDK. What does df -h return?

  • Here is the check-sum results: 

    golson@ubuntu:~/Downloads$ md5sum ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00-Linux-x86-Install
    990e690eea37dacb911fd036dae5820c ti-sdk-am335x-evm-05.06.00.00-Linux-x86-Install

    This looks good.  Here is the result for the disk space check:

    golson@ubuntu:~/Downloads$ df -h
    Filesystem  Size     Used   Avail   Use% Mounted on
    /dev/loop0  17G     5.8G    9.6G   38%     /
    none            1.9G    280K   1.9G   1%       /dev
    none            1.9G    1.5M    1.9G   1%       /dev/shm
    none            1.9G    88K      1.9G   1%       /var/run
    none            1.9G    0           1.9G   0%       /var/lock
    none            1.9G    0           1.9G   0%       /lib/init/rw
    /dev/sda3    284G   93G     191G  33%    /host

    It seems like this should be enough space.  By the way, Ubuntu is installed on this machine with Windows on the same disk, using the Ubuntu Windows installer. 

    Thanks

  • Geoff,


    I did not following this thread and not sure if you have checked, but the sdk installer only work on 32bit ubuntu pc. Is you ubuntu 32bit or 64bit with 32bit libs installed?

  • I need to have the Ubuntu version that runs on a computer that also has Windows (wubi).  This is installed with a Windows installer.  It is easy to find and well documented if you want the current version.  Since I needed Ubuntu 10.04.4 I downloaded from this site:  http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/.  The only wubi installer is all the way at the bottom and completely undocumented accept for the name wubi.exe.  After running this I got Ubuntu 10,04 as I wanted, but I am not sure about 32 vs 64 bit.

  • checkout the output of cmd 'uname -m' on your pc. if it is something like 'x86_64' it is 64bit, or if it is like 'i686' or 'i386', it is 32bit.

  • I got it working!!! :)

    The problem was the 64 bit Ubuntu.  I was using the Windows installer that automatically makes a 64 bit system.   I found the solution from this post:

    http://e2e.ti.com/support/dsp/sitara_arm174_microprocessors/f/416/p/140539/506902.aspx#506902

    He had the same trouble as me.  If you enter the follow into the command line of the 64 bit Ubuntu it fixes the problem and the SDK will run:

    sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

    Thanks for all your help
