AM6548: Installing package

Part Number: AM6548


Hi,

I am new to Yocto project. I downloaded ti-processor-sdk-linux-am65xx-evm-07_01_00_17-Linux-x86-Install.bin the latest available. I am using AM65xIDK evm board.

I am referring " Processor SDK Linux for AM65X 07_01_00 section 1.2.3.3 Recipes -> Installing Package. The content is as below :

To install a modified and rebuilt package, copy the new IPKs from the deploy-ipks folder (e.g., arago-tmp-[toolchain]/work/<machine>-linux/jailhouse/[version]/deploy-ipks) to the target system and then run the following command to install the IPKs:

opkg install [package_ipk].ipk

From this what I can understand is that the new build IPK I need to copy to target (IDK evm board) rootfs and run the above command after login in target system.

It is not clear about to which folder of rootfs this .ipk to be copied? As of now I am using SD card to boot and run the target.

regards

Ramu

    Hi Karthik,

    I copied .ipk file to "tmp" folder of rootfs in SD card. The booted the board and run the command. See the log below.

    Looks like it did not find the .ipk file. If I see "tmp" folder in target I see as below -

    What I am trying is that I have created custom layer and a recipe under it and building helloworld.c. It generated the above .ipk file which I want to test on target.

    Hi,

    If your ipk file is in the /tmp folder (which I called find in your ls output), you need to do the following

      root@am65xx-evm:~# opkg install /tmp/example_0.1-r0.1_aarch64.ipk
