Part Number: STARTERWARE-SITARA

Hi Everyone,

I am having AMS5749 EVM kit. I have plugged in Linux SDK which came along with board. It is working fine.I am able to access matrix platform.

Then, i tried to make own bootable SD card by following steps.

1) First i have installed Linux SDK "PROCESSOR-SDK-LINUX-AM57X" from

https://www.ti.com/tool/PROCESSOR-SDK-AM57X

2) Then i followed "1.1.2. Linux SD Card Creation Guide" section from

https://www.ti.com/tool/PROCESSOR-SDK-AM57X

In that i have made following selections

  • Would you like to re-partition the drive anyways [y/n] : -y
  • Number of partitions needed [2/3] :2
  • ################################################################################

        Choose file path to install from

        1 ) Install pre-built images from SDK
        2 ) Enter in custom boot and rootfs file paths

    ################################################################################

    Choose now [1/2] :1
  • Will now install from SDK pre-built images
    now installing:  ti-processor-sdk-linux-am57xx-evm-06.03.00.106

    Enter Number of rootfs Tarball: 1

    Syncing...
     
    Un-mount the partitions
     
    Remove created temp directories
     
    Operation Finished
  • sudo dd if=u-boot-spl.bin-am57xx-evm of=/dev/sdb seek=117 bs=512 conv=fsync

Now, can you please guide me.

a) What are the further step to boot system from SD Card ?

b) and how to install matrix platform or custom developed platform.

I have tried to follow "1.1.5. Program EVM User Guide(https://www.ti.com/tool/PROCESSOR-SDK-AM57X)" but there is no point for the AMS5749 processor.

    Hi,

    After using the script 

    Try this link to the SDK documentation. 

    I will assume that you purchased a AM574x IDK, here is the link to the HW user guide.

    Best Regards,

    Schuyler

    Thank you Sir for your support.

    Yes, i have AM574x IDK.

    I have referred both link.

    But i am not getting proper sequence to proceed.

    Can you please suggest me exactly what sequence i have to follow?

    Means after those steps which steps i have to execute. So that i can get the similar screen which was coming while plugging inbuilt SD card(came along with board).

    Do i need to connect EVM board to router? While making boot from SD card.

    Waiting for your response.

    Hi Sir,

    I have followed Processor SDK Linux 06_03_00_106 in Linux 20.04.02 LTS (software-dl.ti.com/.../Download_and_Install_the_SDK.html)

    In that i have followed

    1.1.2 Linux SD Card Creation Guide

    then

    1.1.6 Run Setup scripts

    In that it was suggesting to run  ./sdk-install.sh. But after installation i am unable to fine sdk-install.sh.

    In the installation path "setup.sh" is there. So i used this script and it is giving following error as Ubuntu 20.04 is not supported.


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    TISDK setup script
    This script will set up your development host for SDK development.
    Parts of this script require administrator priviliges (sudo access).
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Verifying Linux host distribution
    Unsupported host machine, only Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS are supported
    Failed setup, aborting..

    So should i change Ubuntu version?

    Hi,

    After installing Ubuntu 18.04, i am able to create bootable SD card. Now i can successfully boot from SD card.

    Does it mean that Linux SDK is not supported with Linux 20.04?

    Thanks & Regards,
