How do I access linux on p2041rdb-pb?

[calpage]

I get to u-boot ok, and then enter

run hvboot

The system boots to HV> ok.

info reports

p1-linux running

p2-linux running

So, How to I get to either linux?

Is there a getting started doc for the p2041rdb-pb?

It depends on how you've configured the hypervisor, but typically you'll need to use the mux server to split the serial connection into multiple channels for talking to guests.  This isn't board-specific; information should be in the hypervisor documentation.

Are you specifically trying to use the hypervisor to run multiple instances of Linux (or other OSes), or do you just want to boot a single Linux instance?

I just wish to boot linux from the p2041rdb-pa box that I purchased from Freescale. As purchased, it has a hard disk. The only thing I could find in u-boot env was 'hvboot'.

Is there a way I can just boot linux straight without the hypervisor?

Or, from the hypervisor, can I connect to one linux?

Just compile the Linux SDK images (bitbake fsl-image-core) and load them via tftp from u-boot. You can take a look to online documentation [1]
