1********************* 2* MIPS Creator CI20 * 3********************* 4 5Introduction 6============ 7 8The 'ci20_defconfig' will create a root filesystem and a kernel image 9under the 'output/images/' directory. This document will try to explain how 10to use them in order to run Buildroot in the MIPS Creator CI20 board. 11 12How to build it 13=============== 14 15Configure Buildroot 16------------------- 17 18 $ make ci20_defconfig 19 20Build the rootfs 21---------------- 22 23Note: you will need to have access to the network, since Buildroot will 24download the packages' sources. 25 26You may now build your rootfs with: 27 28 $ make 29 30(This may take a while, consider getting yourself a coffee ;-) ) 31 32How to write the SD card 33======================== 34 35Once the build process is finished you will have an image called 36"sdcard.img" in the output/images/ directory. 37 38Make sure the SD card is not mounted then copy the bootable "sdcard.img" onto 39it with "dd": 40 41 $ sudo dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX 42 43Insert the SDcard into your ci20, and power it up. Your new system 44should come up now and start a console on the UART HEADER. 45 46see: https://elinux.org/CI20_Hardware#Dedicated_UART_header 47
