BeagleV
|
||
|
|
=======
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
BeagleV is a low-cost RISC-V 64-bit based platform, powered by a
|
||
|
|
Starfive JH7100 processor. The current defconfig in Buildroot has been
|
||
|
|
tested with the JH7100 chip used on the beta version of the BeagleV
|
||
|
|
board.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
How to build
|
||
|
|
============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ make beaglev_defconfig
|
||
|
|
$ make
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Build results
|
||
|
|
=============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After building, output/images contains:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
+ Image
|
||
|
|
+ fw_payload.bin
|
||
|
|
+ fw_payload.bin.out
|
||
|
|
+ fw_payload.elf
|
||
|
|
+ rootfs.ext2
|
||
|
|
+ rootfs.ext4
|
||
|
|
+ sdcard.img
|
||
|
|
+ u-boot.bin
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The two important files are:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- fw_payload.bin.out, which is the bootloader image, containing
|
||
|
|
both OpenSBI and U-Boot.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- sdcard.img, the SD card image, which contains the root filesystem,
|
||
|
|
kernel image and Device Tree.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Flashing the SD card image
|
||
|
|
==========================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Preparing the board
|
||
|
|
===================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Connect the Beagle-V fan to the 5V supply (pin 2 or 4 of the GPIO
|
||
|
|
connector) and GND (pin 6 of the GPIO connector).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Connect a TTL UART cable to pin 8 (TX), 10 (RX) and 14 (GND).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Insert your SD card.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Power-up the board using an USB-C cable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Flashing the bootloader
|
||
|
|
=======================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The bootloader pre-flashed on the Beagle-V has a non-working
|
||
|
|
fdt_addr_r environment variable value, so it won't work
|
||
|
|
as-is. Reflashing the bootloader with the bootloader image produced by
|
||
|
|
Buildroot is necessary.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When the board starts up, a pre-loader shows a count down of 2
|
||
|
|
seconds, interrupt by pressing any key. You should reach a menu like
|
||
|
|
this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

select the function:
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
--------8<----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Press 0 and Enter. You will now see "C" characters being
|
||
|
|
displayed. Ask your serial port communication program to send
|
||
|
|
fw_payload.bin.out using the Xmodem protocol.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After reflashing is complete, restart the board, it will automatically
|
||
|
|
start the system from the SD card, and reach the login prompt.
