how to implement the boot splash in u-boot

[DannyXiao]

Dear all:

       I followed the chapter 10 in the document "13.5.0_Android_Advanced_User_Guide.pdf" and try to bring up the boot splash logo at uboot stage on MX6SL EVK board.

       But after I did all the things follow the steps in the document, I haven't seen anything on the EPD panel. Has anyone tried this?

[DannyXiao]

Can anyone help on my question?

The 2013.07 U-Boot - going to be released very soon - has support for it.

[DannyXiao]

Thank you for your reply Otavio.  Is this 2013.07 u-boot the offical FSL release?

[OtavioSalvador]

It is not. But it works wonderfully.

[DannyXiao]

Could you show me where to get this u-boot?

[OtavioSalvador]

You can get it using GIT from:

git.denx.de Git - u-boot.git/summary

We also have it supported in the Yocto based BSP.

Yocto has a good community around it and currently most commonly used SoCs from i.MX platform is already supported by the meta-fsl-arm layer.

You can find more information how to make a build at https://community.freescale.com/docs/DOC-94023
