Detailed Instructions[edit | edit source]
It is assumed that the development environment has been set up properly as described here.
- start the Linux development VM and login into the system
- open a terminal window and cd into U-Boot source code
cd lynx/u-boot
- in case of needs you can update your local repository with the following git command
git pull
- configure the build environment
source ~/env.sh
- enter the source tree directory and run the following commands:
make mx6ul_lynx_defconfig make
NOTE: this is the default configuration suitable for latest SBC Lynx target.
- The former command selects the default XUELK configuration suitable for latest SBC Lynx targets (for additional defconfig please refer to the U-Boot defconfigs table above), while the latter builds the U-Boot binary image itself (
u-boot.img).
u-boot.img can be copied to the tftp root directory /tftpboot/lynx/ with the following command:
cp u-boot.img /tftpboot/lynx/
Please refer to Flashing Images (XUELK)#U-Boot for more information in how to update the bootloader on you board.
