AM3359 IDK Not booting with Linux

Prateek,

pretty easy - there is no link because there is no Linux SDK supporting the IDK board. This has been discussed multiple times on this forum. Other boards kernel don't work because of different system hardware.

Regards.

Hi Prateek,

There is SYSBIOS examples available for IDK, please download from below link and try it.

Thanks for reply, If there is no linux available, can't i change some pin mux settings in linux source and  use the same EVM linux source for IDK?

Prateek,

of course you can change Linux sources and adapt. But I fear it is a bit more than just pin-muxing changes... and there is no support from the Linux team here.

Some people on the forum I believe managed to get it to work (at least on ICE). Just search...

Preferred option for industrial protocol evaluation should be IA-SDK anyway. This is supported and tested. On Linux you would also still have to do driver and stack ports to get this to work.

Hi Frank,

I am interested in porting Linux source of EVM to am3359 IDK. Could you tell me what will be the major challenges in porting .

Also is there driver support for PRU-ICSS module in linux.

Praveen,

I can't say as I didn't try that. Obviously it is the same SoC so the differences are not big.

There is a basic Linux PRU driver available as part of the open source PRU package: https://github.com/beagleboard/am335x_pru_package

Hi Frank,

Thank you for the quick response.

Could you please tell me what are the major hardware changes between am3359 EVM and IDK platforms.

Praveen.
