AM3358: Yocto: Failure expanding variable UBOOT_LOCALVERSION

Hi All,

I have faced similar with respect to u-boot by following AM335x SDK to version 8.2.0.24.

Background info: was trying to build the custom uboot by creating new layer.

please refer this for more info LOCALVERSION expansion error in custom u-boot - Arm-based microcontrollers forum - Arm-based microcontrollers - TI E2E support forums 

Regards,

Manu

  • Hi Manu,

    first I thought this is a duplicate post, but then I suppose this post here is about you trying to build AM335x SDK v8.2 from Yocto sources? I've done the build myself and it worked successfully without further changes needed to U-Boot related source trees. If you still have trouble building our filesystem images from AM335x production Yocto sources please post the exact issue here.

    As for your customizations discussed in the other thread, usually I would always recommend building our production images first to make sure the build works and establish a known-good reference, and then cross-check/compare/debug from there as to why your custom layer/build setup doesn't work.

    Regards, Andreas
