Linux/AM5708: AM571x IDK Board ID Memory Programming

Part Number: AM5708

Tool/software: Linux

I am doing a custom board development with AM5708 and referring AM571xIDK.

Can I get more information on the significance of the below.

I dont have such EEPROM in my board. Is it mandatory . If not, what modifications required in UBoot/Linux.

I found the below for AM335x, is similar instructions available for AM571x?

    Please, read this post. It is not mandatory to have an EEPROM on your board. To understand which modifications are required, you can start with reading the "Board Initialisation Flow" in <Processor SDK>/board-support/u-boot-<version>/README file <Processor SDK>/board-support/u-boot-<version>/doc/README.generic-board, <Processor SDK>/board-support/u-boot-<version>/doc/README.arm-relocation, <Processor SDK>/board-support/u-boot-<version>/doc/README.multi-dtb-fit and watch these Linux Board Porting Training Series. Then later you can refer to the patch in this post to see which modifications I've made to change the board name to "AM571IDK" for a custom board and check what I've modified for AM57xx platforms with the patch from this post too.

    You can program the EEPROM by referring to this thread or this post. These commands will work on AM571x.


    Best regards,
