The i.MX6 SoloX SABRE board for smart devices is Freescale's reference design board based on the heterogeneous ARM Cortex-A9 + Cortex-M4 i.MX6 SoloX applications processor. This defconfig is inspired from previous freescale_imx6*sabresd_defconfig, and is based on Freescale "official" git repo on git.freescale.com and SW release 3.10.53_1.1.0_ga.

Build
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
First, configure Buildroot for your SABRE board.
|
|
For i.MX6Q SABRE SD board:
|
|
|
|
make freescale_imx6qsabresd_defconfig
|
|
|
|
For i.MX6DL SABRE SD board:
|
|
|
|
make freescale_imx6dlsabresd_defconfig
|
|
|
|
For i.MX6 SoloX SABRE SD board:
|
|
|
|
make freescale_imx6sxsabresd_defconfig
|
|
|
|
For i.MX6Q SABRE Auto board:
|
|
|
|
make freescale_imx6qsabreauto_defconfig
|
|
|
|
For i.MX6DL SABRE Auto board:
|
|
|
|
make freescale_imx6dlsabreauto_defconfig
|
|
|
|
Build all components:
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
You will find in ./output/images/ the following files:
|
|
- imx6dl-sabresd.dtb or imx6q-sabresd.dtb or imx6sx-sdb.dtb or
|
|
imx6q-sabreauto.dtb or imx6dl-sabreauto.dtb
|
|
- rootfs.ext2
|
|
- rootfs.tar
|
|
- u-boot.imx
|
|
- uImage, or zImage for i.MX6 SoloX
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
Run the following script as root on your SD card. This will partition the card
|
|
and copy the bootloader, kernel, DTBs and root filesystem as needed.
|
|
|
|
*** WARNING! The script will destroy all the card content. Use with care! ***
|
|
|
|
./board/freescale/create-boot-sd.sh <your-sd-device>
|
|
|
|
Boot the SABRE board
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
i.MX6 SABRE SD
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
To boot your newly created system on an i.MX6 SABRE SD Board (refer to
|
|
the i.MX6 SABRE SD Quick Start Guide for guidance):
|
|
- insert the SD card in the SD3 slot of the board;
|
|
- locate the BOOT dip switches (SW6), set dips 2 and 7 to ON, all others to OFF;
|
|
- connect a Micro USB cable to Debug Port and connect using a terminal emulator
|
|
at 115200 bps, 8n1;
|
|
- power on the board.
|
|
|
|
i.MX6 SoloX SABRE SD
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
To boot your newly created system on an i.MX6 SoloX SABRE SD Board

|
|
- insert the SD card in the J4-SD4 socket at the bottom of the board;
|
|
- Set the SW10, SW11 and SW12 DIP switches at the top of the board in
|
|
their default position, to boot from SD card. Reference configuration:
|
|
|
|

|
|
a terminal emulator at 115200 bps, 8n1;
|
|
- power on the board with the SW1-PWR switch at the top of the board.
|
|
|
|
