9*4882a593Smuzhiyun=====
10*4882a593Smuzhiyun
11*4882a593SmuzhiyunFirst, configure Buildroot for the i.MX8MQ EVK board:
12*4882a593Smuzhiyun
13*4882a593SmuzhiyunIf you want to use the NXP kernel:
14*4882a593Smuzhiyun
15*4882a593Smuzhiyun  make freescale_imx8mqevk_defconfig
16*4882a593Smuzhiyun
17*4882a593SmuzhiyunOr if you want to use a mainline kernel:
18*4882a593Smuzhiyun
19*4882a593Smuzhiyun  make imx8mqevk_defconfig
20*4882a593Smuzhiyun
21*4882a593SmuzhiyunBuild all components:
22*4882a593Smuzhiyun
23*4882a593Smuzhiyun  make
24*4882a593Smuzhiyun
25*4882a593SmuzhiyunYou will find in output/images/ the following files:

42*4882a593SmuzhiyunCreate a bootable SD card
43*4882a593Smuzhiyun=========================
44*4882a593Smuzhiyun
45*4882a593SmuzhiyunTo determine the device associated to the SD card have a look in the
46*4882a593Smuzhiyun/proc/partitions file:
47*4882a593Smuzhiyun
48*4882a593Smuzhiyun  cat /proc/partitions
49*4882a593Smuzhiyun
50*4882a593SmuzhiyunBuildroot prepares a bootable "sdcard.img" image in the output/images/
51*4882a593Smuzhiyundirectory, ready to be dumped on a SD card. Launch the following
52*4882a593Smuzhiyuncommand as root:
53*4882a593Smuzhiyun
54*4882a593Smuzhiyun  dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/<your-sd-device>
55*4882a593Smuzhiyun
56*4882a593Smuzhiyun*** WARNING! This will destroy all the card content. Use with care! ***
57*4882a593Smuzhiyun
58*4882a593SmuzhiyunFor details about the medium image layout, see the definition in

61*4882a593SmuzhiyunBoot the i.MX8MQ EVK board
62*4882a593Smuzhiyun==========================
63*4882a593Smuzhiyun
64*4882a593SmuzhiyunTo boot your newly created system:

66*4882a593Smuzhiyun- Configure the switches as follows:
67*4882a593SmuzhiyunSW801:	ON	ON	OFF	OFF
68*4882a593SmuzhiyunSW802:	ON	OFF
69*4882a593Smuzhiyun- put a micro USB cable into the Debug USB Port and connect using a terminal
70*4882a593Smuzhiyun  emulator at 115200 bps, 8n1;
71*4882a593Smuzhiyun- power on the board.
72*4882a593Smuzhiyun
73*4882a593SmuzhiyunEnable HDMI output
74*4882a593Smuzhiyun==================
75*4882a593Smuzhiyun
76*4882a593SmuzhiyunTo enable HDMI output at boot you must provide the video kernel boot

78*4882a593Smuzhiyunstopping in U-Boot prompt:
79*4882a593Smuzhiyun
80*4882a593Smuzhiyunsetenv mmcargs 'setenv bootargs console=${console} root=${mmcroot} video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080-32@60'
81*4882a593Smuzhiyunsaveenv
82*4882a593Smuzhiyunreset
83*4882a593Smuzhiyun
