*************************** Freescale i.MX8MQ EVK board *************************** This file documents the Buildroot support for the Freescale i.MX8MQ EVK board. Build ===== First, configure Buildroot for the i.MX8MQ EVK board: make freescale_imx8mqevk_defconfig Build all components: make You will find in output/images/ the following files: - bl31.bin - boot.vfat - fsl-imx8mq-evk.dtb - Image - imx8-boot-sd.bin - lpddr4_pmu_train_fw.bin - rootfs.ext2 - rootfs.ext4 - rootfs.tar - sdcard.img - signed_hdmi_imx8m.bin - u-boot.bin - u-boot.imx - u-boot-nodtb.bin - u-boot-spl-ddr.bin Create a bootable SD card ========================= To determine the device associated to the SD card have a look in the /proc/partitions file: cat /proc/partitions Buildroot prepares a bootable "sdcard.img" image in the output/images/ directory, ready to be dumped on a SD card. Launch the following command as root: dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/<your-sd-device> *** WARNING! This will destroy all the card content. Use with care! *** For details about the medium image layout, see the definition in board/freescale/common/imx/genimage.cfg.template_imx8. Boot the i.MX8MQ EVK board ========================== To boot your newly created system: - insert the SD card in the SD slot of the board; - Configure the switches as follows: SW801: ON ON OFF OFF SW802: ON OFF - put a micro USB cable into the Debug USB Port and connect using a terminal emulator at 115200 bps, 8n1; - power on the board. Enable HDMI output ================== To enable HDMI output at boot you must provide the video kernel boot argument. To set the video boot argument from U-Boot run after stopping in U-Boot prompt: setenv mmcargs 'setenv bootargs console=${console} root=${mmcroot} video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080-32@60' saveenv reset Change screen resolution to suit your connected display.
