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 desk-mx-l/u-boot
- in case of needs you can update your local repository with the following git command
git pull
- checkout the required branch
git checkout desk-mx8m-l-rel-2.0.0
- configure the build environment
source /home/dvdk/desk-mx-l/desk-mx8m-l-2.0.0-rc2_env.sh
- enter the source tree directory and run the following commands:
For MITO 8M Mini
make imx8mm_mito8mmini_defconfig make
For ORCA
make imx8mp_mito8mplus_defconfig make
NOTE: this is the default configuration suitable for the latest <SOM> target.
- The former command selects the default DESK-MX8M-L configuration suitable for latest <SOM> targets (for additional defconfig please refer to the U-Boot defconfigs table above), while the latter builds the U-Boot binary image files (
SPLandu-boot.img).
Binary files can be copied to the tftp root directory /tftpboot/desk-mx-l/ with the following command:
cp SPL u-boot.img /tftpboot/desk-mx-l/
Please refer to this page for more information on how to update the bootloader on your board.
