Linux: Create bootable sd card issue

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DM3730

Tool/software: Linux

I would like to create a SD card that builds kernel 4.4.32 using TI SDK (03.02.00.05) and can start Gumstix (Firestorm-Y).
I am referring to this page.
1. MLO
2.boot.scr
3.u-boot.img
4.zImage
5.rootfs
I understand that you need to prepare the above, where do I get 1 to 5?
Thanks.

    Hi Jun,

    To create bootable SD card based on the AM335x TI PSDK3.02, refer to the below wiki page:

    processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_Linux_Getting_Started_Guide
    processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Processor_SDK_Linux_create_SD_card_script

    I created the SD card refer to the link, and got this error.
    Do I need "omap3-overo-storm-tobi.dtb" file ?

    Jun,

    Which device you are using actually? Is it AM335x or OMAP36x?

    For AM335x device, you do not need omap3-overo-storm-tobi.dtb file. Just make sure you are using the correct AM335x TI PSDK v3.02:

    software-dl.ti.com/.../index_FDS.html

    If possible, it is better to switch to the latest AM335x TI PSDK v4.01 (kernel 4.9.41):

    software-dl.ti.com/.../index_FDS.html

    My device is OMAP36x.

    Thanks.

    From where you get this TI SDK for OMAP36x? In TI site, I am not able to find OMAP36x SDK.

    The only info for OMAP36x I was able to find, is regarding TI Zoom board:

    Jun,

    This is AM335x SDK, you can NOT use it for OMAP36x device.

    Can you provide more info regarding your OMAP36x board? Is it custom board or TI board or 3rd party board?

    Regards,
    Pavel

    Jun,

    The link you have provided is for 3rd party board, Gumstix Overo FireSTORM-Y Computer-On-Module. From the description of this board, I see it is with TI DM3730 device, not with OMAP36x device, see "Details" tab:

    Texas Instruments DM3730 Applications Processor: 1GHz ARM Cortex-A8 DaVinci DM3730 high-performance microprocessor. Includes a 720p HD DSP imaging and video accelerator and PowerVR SGX graphics accelerator with Open GL ES 2.0 and OpenVG support. The DM3730 has been designed to provide best in class ARM and graphics performance while delivering low power consumption.

    The latest TI SDK for DM37x boards is DVSDK v4.03, it comes with kernel 2.6.37:

     

    This TI DVSDK by default support DM37x TI EVM (link below), thus you should port it for Gumstix board, if you need to use that TI DVSDK.

     

    Another option is to use the Gumstix SW, which is based on kernel 3.17. You can find that SW in the "Software" tab inside the link you have provided.

    From where to get Gumstix SW (which should run by default on this board, no need to port it), how to build that SW and how to create boot-able SD card with that SW, you should check with the Gumstix support team, refer to the below link:

    I use gumstix software with yocto.

    Thanks.
