IMX6 sabre lite board

[jk1z]

Hi All,

I have downloaded the uboot and linux source from the 

http://imxcommunity.org/group/i-mx-6-series-processors/forum/topics/i-mx6-resources

and try to compile it, but I got some errors.

Did anyone compiled it as separate source ? (both linux and uboot source - without using LTIB).

Is there any specific config file to be used?

thanks and rgds.

i have checked this out and now it got compiled. many thanks.

And this shows that you haven't checked out the "imx_v2009.08" branch :(

git checkout -b imx_v2009.08 origin/imx_v2009.08

What does "git branch -a" show?

"git log" should show

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/uboot-imx.git/commit/?h=imx_v2009.08&id=d3020f5dfa80f3c106...

as topmost commit.

[jk1z]

yes Dirk,

I have cloned the uboot git, is there any way I can verify it for the correct version?

[DirkBehme]

It has a SabreLite config:

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/uboot-imx.git/tree/include/configs/mx6q_sabrelite.h?h=imx_...

Are you sure you followed Florent's advice "checkout the branch "imx_v2009.08""?

[jk1z]

Hi Florent,

thanks for the correction and git works now.

but the source that cloned, is not having the config file for mx6q sabre, and so it gives error.

================

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- mx6q_sabrelite_config
make: *** No rule to make target `mx6q_sabrelite_config'. Stop.
make: *** [mx6q_sabrelite_config] Error 1

=====================

The address to clone is not correct. I provided you with the web page showing the details of the repository !

You should go on that page with a web browser, and you'll see that the repository can be cloned with the link provided at the bottom of the page:

"Clone
git://git.freescale.com/imx/uboot-imx.git
http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/uboot-imx.git"

hi Florent,

thanks for the reply, I tried with installing git in my windows machine and used git bash to clone the repository.

But I got a fatal error:

"no address associated with the name

The remote end hung up unexpectedly."

I used the command - git clone git://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/uboot-imx.git

Kindly let me know if there anything to be corrected.

As Dirk said, we don't know which of the versions you use !!!

I cloned the first git suggested for u-boot:

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/uboot-imx.git/

then checkout the branch "imx_v2009.08", and build successfully the i.MX6DQ Sabre-lite u-boot with the commands that I put above.

[DirkBehme]

As mentioned above: Please share the details you've done and the errors you get! Which U-Boot do you use?

[jk1z]

hi Florent,

Linux kernel I have succeeded the compilation - by changing the menuconfig options.

For uboot, I dint find any config file related to sabrelite board.

Do anyone have done the compilation for u-boot?

Also there is no any specific func spec or documents for sabre lite, and IMX6Q processors.

any suggestions on this would be more helpful.

thanks and regards.

[FlorentAuger]

Please refer to the method used for other i.MX, such in the BSP doc: uboot_mx5x.pdf.

Typically, to build u-boot for the sabre lite board, it is:

make CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.1.2-glibc-2.5-nptl-3/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- mx6q_sabrelite_config

make CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.1.2-glibc-2.5-nptl-3/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-

Other cross compiler versions should work.

[DirkBehme]

The page you mention above points to 4 different U-Boot/Kernel sources. Which one have you used? Please share the details you've done and the errors you get. Yes, a lot of people are working without LTIB.
