*************************** Freescale i.MX8QXP MEK board *************************** This file documents the Buildroot support for the Freescale i.MX8QXP MEK board. Build ===== First, configure Buildroot for the i.MX8QXP MEK board: make freescale_imx8qxpmek_defconfig Build all components: make You will find in output/images/ the following files: - ahab-container.img - bl31.bin - boot.vfat - fsl-imx8qxp-mek.dtb - Image - imx8-boot-sd.bin - mkimg.commit - mx8qx-mek-scfw-tcm.bin - mx8qx-val-scfw-tcm.bin - rootfs.ext2 - rootfs.ext4 - rootfs.tar - sdcard.img - u-boot-atf.bin - u-boot.bin - u-boot-hash.bin 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/ *** WARNING! This will destroy all the card content. Use with care! *** For details about the medium image layout, see the definition in board/freescale/common/imx/genimage.cfg.template_imx8.
