Minimal filesystem AM335x

Gokul cg

Hi,

I am searching for a pre-build minimal filesystem for AM335x EVM(nand) . I found one prebuild image @beaglebord community page BusyBox (ramdisk) File System
code.google.com/.../BeagleSourceCode [beagleboard.googlecode.com/files/rd-ext2-8M.bin] .

But i could not add any additional binary required to this file system .

is there any prebuild filesystem with minimal footprint available ?

Thanks and regards

Besides the arago-base-tisdk-image-am335x-evm.tar.gz (located in ti-sdk-am335x-evm-08.00.00.00/filesystem) there is no other prebuild minimal file system.

The arago-base-tisdk-image-am335x-evm.tar.gz is a barebones filesystem. It includes things like busybox and other packages but doesn't include alot of larger libraries like Qt, Gstreamer etc.. Its a good starting point for customers who want a minimal filesystem that can boot that they can later install additional software on top of.

If the above FS is not what you are looking for, you will have to rebuild the arago fs yourself.

You can find build & env setup instructions here:http://arago-project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
