Linux/PROCESSOR-SDK-AM437X: QSPI boot on Starter Kit

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM437X

Tool/software: Linux

I am going to boot from QSPI Flash on AM437x Starter kit.

I have already flashed u-boot.bin, device tree file, linux kernel, arago file system on QSPI-NOR Flash via USB RNDIS.

After I reboot device, device didn't boot from QSPI and there is no any logs on UART Console.

What I want to know first is that if AM437x Starter kit supports to boot from QSPI Flash. If yes, How can I do on starter kit.

Please give me full detail documents and reason.

Thanks.

  • Yes, QSPI boot is supported on the SK. Not that the boot sequence is MMC0 -> USB_MS(USB1) -> USB_CL(USB0) -> QSPI. Make sure you have no SD card in the slot and the USBs are not connected. Also not that there are quite significant timeouts for USB boot (~ 20 sec.), so you should wait for them to expire.
