Accessing the TSM320DM368 EVM after starting mincom

Hi, I am very new to this and need help in starting my development.

After starting minicom with "minicom -w " and powercycling my EVM, my board still boots from SD card. How do i get to boot from UART? And is it normal for the minicom to show offline?

    HI Amith,

    • Check for the boot mode switches and set it properly for the boot mode what you want
    • interrupt the booting at the uboot, and change the boot args appropriate.  
    • Suggest you to go through the install guide or beginner guide available with the software package
    • Ignore the "micicom offline " message

    • my board fails to boot from from UART even when the switches are configured to boot mode to UART.
    • the software design guide asks me to execute some commands on the target system, so can you educate me as to how  and where i should enter these commands.

    Hi Amith,

    • my board fails to boot from from UART even when the switches are configured to boot mode to UART. 
      As I mentioned in previous comment, it is not the boot switch alone, You need to check boot args also. + your binaries should be built to support the boot mode what you want.

      Can you share the logs?
