"Enter path where SD card tarballs were downloaded" Can't create SD CARD

Hi Kong,

Can you provide the steps you followed with the entire logs as well so that we can track it down.

Regards

Gokul

This script will create a bootable SD card from custom or pre-built binaries.

The script must be run with root permissions and from the bin directory of
the SDK

Example:
 $ sudo ./create-sdcard.sh

Formatting can be skipped if the SD card is already formatted and
partitioned properly.

1.My output

2.The doc I followed

3. The script I runed

Hi Kong,

Can you try the following steps instead of running the script:

• Download the following files from the below link:
  • File 1 : boot-adas-j784s4-evm.tar.gz 

  • File 2 : tisdk-adas-image-j784s4-evm.tar.xz 

  • Link: PROCESSOR-SDK-LINUX-J784S4 Software development kit (SDK) | TI.com

• >cd <FAT32 partition of sd card>
  >tar -xvf <Path to File 1>
  >sync
  >cd < EXT4 partition of sd card>
  >tar -xvf <Path to File 2>
  >sync

I tried .It won't work.Could you give me the a method that can work on your computer?

Hi Kong,

Can you point out what wasn't working on your side as I tried the same steps on my computer and it works.

Regards

Gokul

I think no mater what "tar.xz" file do,will not affect that your official create SD card scripts has some issues.

Instead of asking me to try more things, don't you think you should check the scripts in your official doc and sdk ?

My hope is you can give me scripts that works.

Hi Kong,

The script has no isssues.

You will have to download the following files from the below link to a directory.

• File 1 : boot-adas-j784s4-evm.tar.gz 

• File 2 : tisdk-adas-image-j784s4-evm.tar.xz 

• Link: PROCESSOR-SDK-LINUX-J784S4 Software development kit (SDK) | TI.com

Then provide the path to that directory containing the above 2 files when this prompt comes up on running the script.

Regards

Gokul
