How to Update U-Boot on Warp7 board |
||||
---------------------------------- |
||||
|
||||
Required software on the host PC: |
||||
|
||||
- imx_usb_loader: https://github.com/boundarydevices/imx_usb_loader |
||||
|
||||
- dfu-util: http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/releases/ (if you are in a |
||||
Debian distribution then you can get it via libdfu-dev package) |
||||
|
||||
- libusb: http://libusb.org/ (if you are in a Debian distribution |
||||
then you can get it via libusb-dev and libusb-1.0-0-dev) |
||||
|
||||
In U-Boot folder, build U-Boot for Warp7: |
||||
|
||||
$ make mrproper |
||||
$ make warp7_config |
||||
$ make |
||||
|
||||
This will generate the U-Boot binary called u-boot.imx. |
||||
|
||||
Put warp7 board in USB download mode: |
||||
|
||||
Remove the CPU board from the base board then put switch 2 in the upper |
||||
position |
||||
|
||||
Connect a USB to serial adapter between the host PC and warp7 |
||||
|
||||
Connect a USB cable between the OTG warp7 port and the host PC |
||||
|
||||
Copy u-boot.imx to the imx_usb_loader folder. |
||||
|
||||
Load u-boot.imx via USB: |
||||
|
||||
$ sudo ./imx_usb u-boot.imx |
||||
|
||||
Then U-Boot should start and its messages will appear in the console program. |
||||
|
||||
Open a terminal program such as minicom |
||||
|
||||
Use the default environment variables: |
||||
|
||||
=> env default -f -a |
||||
=> saveenv |
||||
|
||||
Run the DFU command: |
||||
=> dfu 0 mmc 0 |
||||
|
||||
Transfer u-boot.imx that will be flashed into the eMMC: |
||||
|
||||
$ sudo dfu-util -D u-boot.imx -a boot |
||||
|
||||
Then on the U-Boot prompt the following message should be seen after a |
||||
successful upgrade: |
||||
|
||||
#DOWNLOAD ... OK |
||||
Ctrl+C to exit ... |
||||
|
||||
Remove power from the warp7 board. |
||||
|
||||
Put warp7 board into normal boot mode (put the switch 2 in the lower position) |
||||
|
||||
Power up the board and the new updated U-Boot should boot from eMMC |
