| This the Buildroot support for the LPC3131 based Gnublin board (see here: |
| http://en.gnublin.org/) and to the Elektor Linux board |
| (http://www.elektor.com/news/elektor-presents-embedded-linux-made-easy.2147294. |
| lynkx) |
| |
| Unfortunately currently the AD and the pwm modules are not supported, i'm about |
| to add also those drivers as well to the current kernel later. |
| |
| Base kernel version: 3.7 (available here: |
| https://gitorious.org/linux-3-7-gnublin/linux-3-7-gnublin/commits/gnublin- |
| support) |
| |
| U-boot version: 2009.11 (available here: |
| https://gitorious.org/u-boot-gnublin-support/u-boot-gnublin-support) |
| |
| |
| Steps to create a bootable SD card (with the given config you need an at least |
| 500 MB SD card): |
| |
| 1.Config buildroot with the gnublin_defconfig: |
| |
| $ make gnublin_defconfig |
| |
| 2.Tweak the config for your needs: |
| |
| $ make menuconfig |
| |
| 3.Build: |
| |
| $ make |
| |
| 4.Create two partitions on your SD card, one with type of BootIt (fdisk ID: df), |
| the size should be around 1M, and another partition with all of the left space |
| on the card, and with the type of normal DOS partition. |
| |
| 5.From the output/images directory dump the u-boot image to the BootIt partition |
| (probably you have to modify the output /dev files according to your system): |
| |
| $ dd if=output/images/u-boot.bin of=/dev/sdc1 |
| |
| 6.Dump the root fs image as well: |
| |
| $ dd if=output/images/rootfs.ext2 of=/dev/sdc2 |
| |
| 7.Insert the SD card into the board's slot, and your board should boot up with |
| your newly created system. |
