VAR-SOM-MX6 - Ubuntu Linaro Alip-20151215 Create Bootable SDCARD


Note:
Under construction!!! Under construction!!! Under construction!!!


Overview

Ubuntu Linaro Alip is pre built file system. For more information Ubuntu based Rootfs provided by Linaro. Variscite used linaro-vivid-alip-20151215-714 image added Vivante Graphic acceleration and compile the GStreamer with i.MX6 support.

Build Ubuntu Alip NFS is prerequisite step. Please make sure you run it and have a complete NFS build directory as described in the linked WIKI.

The steps require to build an Bootable SDCARD:

  1. Build Ubuntu Alip NFS.
  2. Format and partition the SCDARD
  3. Install U-Boot images
  4. Copy the kernel image and device tree files.
  5. Install the root file system
  6. Deploy the kernel modules
  7. Deploy the Wi-Fi modules and firmware

Format and partition the SCDARD

$ cd ~/var-som-mx6-alip
$ sudo mkdir rootfs

Install U-Boot images

Copy the kernel image and device tree files

Install the root file system

$ mkdir ~/var-som-mx6-alip
$ cd ~/var-som-mx6-alip
$ sudo mkdir rootfs
$ cd rootfs
$ sudo tar xvf ~/Downloads/linaro-alip-20151215-v1.tar.bz2

Deploy the kernel modules

Deploy the Wi-Fi modules and firmware
