    Is this DM8168 TI EVM or custom board?

    If EVM, one option is to use DM816x EZSDK (ti-ezsdk_dm816x-evm_5_05_02_00) script mksdboot.sh. This script will create you bootable MMC/SD card.

    You can start with these 3 docs:

    ti-ezsdk_dm816x-evm_5_05_02_00/docs/DM816x_EZ_Software_Developers_Guide.pdf

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/TI81XX_PSP_UBOOT_User_Guide

    Hi Sir, Thanks for the suggestions. 

    Actually I have custom development board( which is not ti's ). That does not support Gstreamer pipelines. So we only need to do this.  also please give me the link where i can download full version of ti-ezsdk tar ball( ti-ezsdk_dm816x-evm_5_05_02_00). Sir if possible please suggest me some links where i can get how to build binaries for uboot, kernel and filesystem.

    Thank you so much sir.

    Then you can also do DDR3 software leveling:

    The porting guide might be also in help:

    For how to build linux kernel:
