1*4882a593SmuzhiyunHow to Update U-Boot on Warp7 board
2*4882a593Smuzhiyun----------------------------------
3*4882a593Smuzhiyun
4*4882a593SmuzhiyunRequired software on the host PC:
5*4882a593Smuzhiyun
6*4882a593Smuzhiyun- imx_usb_loader: https://github.com/boundarydevices/imx_usb_loader
7*4882a593Smuzhiyun
8*4882a593Smuzhiyun- dfu-util: http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/releases/ (if you are in a
9*4882a593SmuzhiyunDebian distribution then you can get it via libdfu-dev package)
10*4882a593Smuzhiyun
11*4882a593Smuzhiyun- libusb: http://libusb.org/ (if you are in a Debian distribution
12*4882a593Smuzhiyunthen you can get it via libusb-dev and libusb-1.0-0-dev)
13*4882a593Smuzhiyun
14*4882a593SmuzhiyunIn U-Boot folder, build U-Boot for Warp7:
15*4882a593Smuzhiyun
16*4882a593Smuzhiyun$ make mrproper
17*4882a593Smuzhiyun$ make warp7_config
18*4882a593Smuzhiyun$ make
19*4882a593Smuzhiyun
20*4882a593SmuzhiyunThis will generate the U-Boot binary called u-boot.imx.
21*4882a593Smuzhiyun
22*4882a593SmuzhiyunPut warp7 board in USB download mode:
23*4882a593Smuzhiyun
24*4882a593SmuzhiyunRemove the CPU board from the base board then put switch 2 in the upper
25*4882a593Smuzhiyunposition
26*4882a593Smuzhiyun
27*4882a593SmuzhiyunConnect a USB to serial adapter between the host PC and warp7
28*4882a593Smuzhiyun
29*4882a593SmuzhiyunConnect a USB cable between the OTG warp7 port and the host PC
30*4882a593Smuzhiyun
31*4882a593SmuzhiyunCopy u-boot.imx to the imx_usb_loader folder.
32*4882a593Smuzhiyun
33*4882a593SmuzhiyunLoad u-boot.imx via USB:
34*4882a593Smuzhiyun
35*4882a593Smuzhiyun$ sudo ./imx_usb u-boot.imx
36*4882a593Smuzhiyun
37*4882a593SmuzhiyunThen U-Boot should start and its messages will appear in the console program.
38*4882a593Smuzhiyun
39*4882a593SmuzhiyunOpen a terminal program such as minicom
40*4882a593Smuzhiyun
41*4882a593SmuzhiyunUse the default environment variables:
42*4882a593Smuzhiyun
43*4882a593Smuzhiyun=> env default -f -a
44*4882a593Smuzhiyun=> saveenv
45*4882a593Smuzhiyun
46*4882a593SmuzhiyunRun the DFU command:
47*4882a593Smuzhiyun=> dfu 0 mmc 0
48*4882a593Smuzhiyun
49*4882a593SmuzhiyunTransfer u-boot.imx that will be flashed into the eMMC:
50*4882a593Smuzhiyun
51*4882a593Smuzhiyun$ sudo dfu-util -D u-boot.imx -a boot
52*4882a593Smuzhiyun
53*4882a593SmuzhiyunThen on the U-Boot prompt the following message should be seen after a
54*4882a593Smuzhiyunsuccessful upgrade:
55*4882a593Smuzhiyun
56*4882a593Smuzhiyun#DOWNLOAD ... OK
57*4882a593SmuzhiyunCtrl+C to exit ...
58*4882a593Smuzhiyun
59*4882a593SmuzhiyunRemove power from the warp7 board.
60*4882a593Smuzhiyun
61*4882a593SmuzhiyunPut warp7 board into normal boot mode (put the switch 2 in the lower position)
62*4882a593Smuzhiyun
63*4882a593SmuzhiyunPower up the board and the new updated U-Boot should boot from eMMC
