boot the OMAP L138 starterware application from Sd card

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OMAPL138

Hi,

I am newbie to Starterware.

I had OMAP L-138 LCDK. I need to boot the OMAP L138 from SD Card. Kindly suggest any information.

  • Hi,

    i tried OMAP L138 Starterware  boot from SD card in my LCDK.

    i am using UBUNTU 12.04.And i am using CCS V5.

    I took   .../OMAPL138_StarterWare_1_10_03_03/build/armv5/cgt_ccs/omapl138/lcdkOMAPL138/bootloader and build successfully and i converted the boot.out file into boot.ais file.

    I took uartecho  application and built it.And i convert it from .out file to .bin file

    i flashed boot.ais and uart.bin  into my SD Card using TI_SDCard_boot_utility_v1_0.exe

    i boot the OMAP L138 from SD Card suceesfully .But On the UART terminal window shows:


    StarterWare OMAPL138 Boot Loader

    Reading Image From NAND ...NAND Read Failed.


    So i want to change the NAND to MMCSD of the bootloader code .When i am doing there is no  " bl_mmcsd.h " and MMCSDBootCopy() function has no definition in there.

    Kindly suggest any idea to solve my problem.

    Thanks and Regards,

  • Hello Vinothraj,

    Unfortunately, OMAPL138 starterware does not support MMC-SD support as of now.

    I suggest you use NAND instead of MMC-SD for bootloader.

  • Hai vinay,

    Thanks for your response.

    Can i add or copy the MMC-SD supported  files and function from AM335X (Starterware 02.00.00.07) to OMAP L138  (Starterware 01.10.03.03).

    it will work?


    Regards,

  • Hi Vinothraj,

    It should not work as:

    1. There is no driver for MMCSD in OMAPL138 starterware
    2. MMC-SD IP used are different in OMAPL138 and AM335x

    Regards,

    Vinay
