TMDS64EVM: eMMC booting issue

Genius 3186 points
Part Number: TMDS64EVM

Hi

May I have question about AM64x eMMC boot Linux?

I think this issue is raw image eMMC boot.

https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors-group/processors/f/processors-forum/1260031/tmds64evm-emmc-boot-fail/4783951?tisearch=e2e-sitesearch&keymatch=eMMC%20boot#4783951

So we could use FS mode.

Question1:

Be this issue effect for Linux SBL eMMC in MCU+SDK?

Question2:

Is there forcast for fix this issue?

I am glad if you let me know that when could we eMMC boot linux in raw mode.

Thanks,

GR

  • Hi GR-san,

    Be this issue effect for Linux SBL eMMC in MCU+SDK?

    The issue in the linked thread is the failure of reading A53 SPL (tispl.bin) by R5 SPL (tiboot3.bin). However, in MCU+ SDK, the counterpart of A53 SPL (tispl.bin) is Linux Appimage which is loaded by the eMMC Linux SBL. So, the issue in the linked thread may not be relevant in case of MCU+ SDK.

    when could we eMMC boot linux in raw mode.

    You should already be able to do eMMC boot Linux in raw mode. You can try it once & if you face any issue, I would be happy to help.
