  • Install Yocto DART (eMMC): Flash Yocto on eMMC, on VAR-DT6CustomBoard


Setting the Boot Mode

Follow the instruction below according to the appropriate carrier board type:

MX6CustomBoard

Booting your MX6CustomBoard system from SD card requires pushing the middle button while powering up the system. See picture below.

Mx6 boot.jpg

To boot a board using an SD card, follow the steps below:

  • Power-off the board.
  • Insert the SD card into the SD/MMC slot of the carrier board (DVK)
  • Push the middle button (Boot Select) and hold
  • Power-up the board
  • Release the middle button (Boot Select) after system starts to boot.
  • The board will automatically boot into Linux from the SD card

SoloCustomBoard

Booting your system requires switching the relevant DIP switch to "Boot from MMC". See picture below.

Solo boot.jpg

To boot board with SD card, Follow the steps below:

  • Power-off the board.
  • Insert the SD card into the SD/MMC slot of the carrier board (DVK)
  • Switch the relevant DIP switch to "Boot from MMC"
  • Power-up board
  • The board will automatically boot into Linux from SD card

DT6CustomBoard

Booting your system requires switching the relevant DIP switch to "Boot from SD card". See picture below.

Dart boot.jpg

To boot board with SD card, Follow the steps below:

  • Power-off the board.
  • Insert the SD card into the SD/MMC slot of the carrier board (DVK)
  • Switch the relevant DIP switch to "Boot from SD card"
  • Power-up board
  • The board will automatically boot into Linux from SD card

Flash Recovery SD from GUI

Flash from GUI

DART-6UL Recovery Sumo.png

Touch/Click on the appropriate icon:

  • Install Yocto NAND, WiFi: Flash Yocto with WiFi support to NAND flash
  • Install Yocto NAND, SD card: Flash Yocto with SD card support to NAND flash
  • Install Yocto eMMC (SD/WiFi) : Flash Yocto to eMMC (installs both SD card and WiFi dtbs to the BOOT partition and let U-Boot select between them at boot time)


Setting the Boot Mode

Booting your system from an SD card requires switching the Boot DIP switches. See picture below.

Boot switch 6ul1.jpg
  • "00" The current position in the picture will set the system to boot from SD card
  • "01" Moving the right switch will set the system to boot from eMMC
  • "10" Moving the left switch will set the system to boot from NAND flash
  • "11" is illegal.
Be aware that your system has eMMC or NAND but never both.


Booting your system from an SD card requires switching the Boot DIP switches. See picture below.
On the VAR-6ULCustomBoard (with a DART-6UL):

  • ON-EXT: Boot from the external storage (SD card) - the current position in the picture
  • OFF-INT: Boot from the SOM's internal storage (eMMC/NAND flash)


Using only one Ethernet port

Apply the following patch to the Linux kernel source, for removing the second Ethernet port, in case your own custom carrier board only has one and doesn't have the second Ethernet phy:

Notes:
- You can follow the "Build Linux from source code" guide to get the Linux kernel source, apply the above patch, build only the device trees and copy them to your SD card.
- In older kernel releases where there is no imx6ul-imx6ull-var-dart-common.dtsi file, the relevant file to edit is called imx6ul-var-dart.dtsi


To remove the second Ethernet port, in case your own custom carrier board only has one and doesn't have the second Ethernet phy:
Edit the dtsi file of the reference carrier board in the Linux kernel source and remove the &fec1 and &fec2 nodes from it.
In case of the VAR-6ULCustomBoard (DART-6UL carrier), the file is arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6ul-imx6ull-var-dart-6ulcustomboard.dtsi.
In case of the Concerto-Board (VAR-SOM-6UL carrier), the file is arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6ul-imx6ull-var-som-concerto-board.dtsi.
The above will result in using the &fec1 node from the dtsi file of the SOM, as is (as the phy of the first Ethernet port is on the SOM), without adding the second port (which its phy is on the reference carrier board).
Notes:
- You can follow the "Build Linux from source code" guide to get the Linux kernel source, apply the above patch, build only the device trees and copy them to your SD card.
