Running Ubuntu 11.10 with AM37x EVM

Hello,

I am using Ubuntu 11.10 as my linux host running under Virtualbox. The am37x evm software installation guide recommends to use Ubuntu 10.04 - I decided to go with Ubuntu since it is the most recent Ubuntu distribution.

 I installed the ti-sdk-am37x-evm-05.02.00.00-Linux-x86-Install on my linux host and noticed this SDK references Linux kernel 2.6.37.  Ubuntu 11.10 uses the kernel 3.0.0-12-generic.  Will this be a problem since the 5.02.00 SDK seems to reference Linux kernel 2.6.37.

Reason for this question is that I am getting the following error: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.37/modules.dep: No such file or directory.

Somehow my environment doesn't have the correct libraries installed.

 

  • These two are unrelated.  We suggest 10.04 as that is the current Long Term Support release of Ubuntu.  The message you see is generated on the target and implies that something is wrong or missing with the filesystem that it has found.  How did you start the am37x board and pass it's filesystem?  A full console log would help here.  Thanks!
