************************************************* Buildroot for Engicam i.CoreM6 RQS SOM platforms: ************************************************* This file documents the Buildroot support for Engicam i.CoreM6 RQS SOM platform boards. i.CoreM6 Quad/Dual/DualLite/Solo RQS SOM Starter kits: https://www.engicam.com/vis-prod/101124 This configuration uses U-Boot mainline and kernel mainline. Build ===== First, configure Buildroot for the Engicam i.CoreM6 RQS: - for i.CoreM6 RQS Quad/Dual/DualLite/Solo: make engicam_imx6qdl_icore_rqs_defconfig Build all components: make You will find the following files in output/images/: - for i.CoreM6 Quad/Dual RQS: - imx6q-icore-rqs.dtb - for i.CoreM6 DualLite/Solo RQS: - imx6dl-icore-rqs.dtb - rootfs.ext4 - rootfs.tar - sdcard.img - SPL - u-boot-dtb.img - uImage Create a bootable SD card ========================= To determine the device associated to the SD card have a look in the /proc/partitions file: cat /proc/partitions Buildroot prepares a bootable "sdcard.img" image in the output/images/ directory, ready to be dumped on a SD card. Launch the following command as root: dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/ sync *** WARNING! This will destroy all the card content. Use with care! *** For details about the medium image layout, see the definition in board/engicam/icorem6_rqs/genimage.cfg Boot the i.CoreM6 RQS boards with SD boot: ========================================= To boot your newly created system: - insert the SD card in the SD slot of the board; - connect 3-wire RS232 serial port J7 on board, and connect with other serial end or USB cable(if serial-to-usb converter used) using a terminal emulator at 115200 bps, 8n1; - close JM2 for sd boot. - power on the board.
