This configuration is intended as a base image.
It includes kernel and firmware support for the common USB WiFi hardware.
Packages for WiFi support are up to the user, you'll probably want
one or more of: hostapd, iw, wireless_tools and/or wpa_supplicant.
It also pulls up the console on the serial port, not on TV output.
You'll need a spare MicroSD card with Freescale's special partition layout.
This is basically two partitions:
1) Type 53, the bootstrap + bootloader/kernel partition, should be 16MB.
2) Anything you like, for this example an ext2 partition, type 83 (linux).
Assuming you see your MicroSD card as /dev/sdc you'd need to do, as root
and from the buildroot project top level directory:
(remember to replace /dev/sdc* with the appropiate device name!)
***** WARNING: Double check that /dev/sdc is your MicroSD card *****
***** It might be /dev/sdb or some other device name *****
***** Failure to do so may result in you wiping your hard disk *****
1. Unmount the filesystem(s) if they're already mounted, usually...
# for fs in `grep /dev/sdc /proc/mounts|cut -d ' ' -f 1`;do umount $fs;done
...should work
2. Blank the partition table out
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=1024 count=1024
3. Set up the partitions
# fdisk /dev/sdc

4. Fill up the first (bootstrap + kernel) partition
# dd if=output/images/imx23_olinuxino_dev_linux.sb bs=512 of=/dev/sdc1 seek=4
5. Fill up the second (filesystem) partition
# dd if=output/images/rootfs.ext2 of=/dev/sdc2 bs=512
6. Remove the MicroSD card from your linux PC and put it into your olinuxino.
7. Boot! You're done!
