LS1043a-rdb for ARM 32bit keeps resetting ...

[niharunadkat]

Hello,

I have compiled the the u-boot version (u-boot-fsl-sdk-v2.0-1701) using  the CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- and ARCH=arm64 and for an SD-card and also made fsl-ls1043a-rdb.dtb.

Than I compiled linux-fsl-sdk-v2.0-1701 using the CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- and ARCH=arm, was able to compile that too and than using the mkimage create kernel.itb file which i than copied it  to the SDcard.

When i boot the LS1043a-rdb board this is the output i get

NXP SDK 2.0 -1701 supports 64-bit and 32-bit Linux image.

Usually bitbake is used for image compilation. See the SDK 2.0-1703 documentation:

http://www.nxp.com/assets/documents/data/en/supporting-information/QORIQ-SDK-2.0-IC-REV0.pdf

We usually use the following command sequence for SDK installing under Ubuntu 14.04 and Ubuntu 16.04:

1. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard patch vim-common sed wget subversion git-core coreutils libbonobo2-common unzip texi2html texinfo libsdl1.2-dev docbook-utils gawk python-pysqlite2 diffstat make gcc build-essential xz-utils g++ desktop-file-utils chrpath libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev autoconf automake groff libtool xterm libncurses5-dev cvs tofrodos

2. a) command: ls -l /bin/sh

                Message:  /bin/sh -> dash

1. b) command: sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash

                Answer after password – No

                Message:

                Removing 'diversion of /bin/sh to /bin/sh.distrib by dash'

                Adding 'diversion of /bin/sh to /bin/sh.distrib by bash'

                Removing 'diversion of /usr/share/man/man1/sh.1.gz to /usr/share/man/man1/sh.distrib.1.gz by dash'

                Adding 'diversion of /usr/share/man/man1/sh.1.gz to /usr/share/man/man1/sh.distrib.1.gz by bash'

1. c) command for checking: ls -l /bin/sh

                Message: /bin/sh -> bash

3. mount SDK .iso file
4. install SDK
5. cd <sdk-install-dir>.
6. ./sources/meta-freescale/scripts/host-prepare.sh

Usually Linux recommends also run the following command: sudo usr/sbin/visudo

8. bitbake fsl-image-minimal

Have a great day,
