Linux/TDA2EVM5777: Config file modifications

Hi iFer,

can you try with:

make linux_clean
make linux
make linux_install

as described here:
processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php

Hello Yordan,

Thank you for your help!

I was able to run the commands that you gave me to compile the config files.

When I run the command 'make linux_install' I run into various questions about the hardware. One question confused me:

choice[1-27]:

Because I am using the dra7xx SoC, I cant continue without selecting the inappropriate option for the processor that I am working on.

Is it possible to bypass these questions or do I have to go through these questions?

If I have to go through the questions, which option do I select and is there documentation on how to answer the following questions?

I tried using TI OMAP1, but Im not sure if that is correct since I am using the TDA2x. The subsequent questions were very specific about TI OMAP.

Thank you,

Hi iFer,

can you try to run (in the kernel directory):

make mrproper
./ti_config_fragments/defconfig_builder.sh -t ti_sdk_dra7x_release
make ti_sdk_dra7x_release_defconfig

and then try to modify resulting .config.

Regards,
Yordan

Hello Yordan,

Thank you for your reply!

I was able to run all of the commands successfully, but I did have to copy the ti_sdk_dra7x_release_defconfig from the folder board-support/linux/arch/arm/configs/ to board-support/linux/arch/x86/configs folder in order to run the command make ti_sdk_dra7x_release_defconfig

I was then able to modify the resulting .config file by using the command make menuconfig in the board-support/linux/ directory.

When I got back and run the command make linux_install, this is the resulting print statements and error:

user01@user01001:~/ti-processor-sdk-linux-automotive-dra7xx-evm-03_04_00_03$ make linux_install

make: *** [linux_install] Error 1

How can I fix this error to complete the compile?

Thank you!,
