-
-Initial Preparation:
-- download and extract Colibri_T20_LinuxImageVx.yz.tar.bz2 package with root
- permissions
-- use any VFAT formatted SD resp. micro SD card with at least 1000 MB of free
- space
-- run update.sh script with -o argument pointing to mount point of above
- mentioned card
-
-Flash NAND:
-- EvalBoard V3.1a
- - depending on JP17/19 connect serial debug console to UARTA aka FFUART
- (lower X25) using null modem RS-232 cable resp. X27 using a regular USB
- cable
- - insert above prepared SD card into SD/MMC socket (X15)
-- Iris V1.1a
- - connect serial debug console to UARTA aka FFUART X13 using null modem RS-232
- cable and a 10 pin IDC to 9 pin D-sub male connector.
- (DTK or Intel standard)
- - insert above prepared micro SD card into micro SD card socket (X10)
-- Boot to U-Boot prompt and start the update:
- - apply power or reset
- - hit any key to stop auto booting
- - if you update from a previous image use the following U-Boot commands:
- setenv drive 0
- setenv setupdate 'mmc rescan; fatload mmc ${drive}:1 ${loadaddr} flash_blk.img; source ${loadaddr}'
- saveenv
- - use 'run setupdate' U-Boot command and then
- - use 'run update' U-Boot command
-- If you updated from an older image:
- - power cycle or reset as requested and hit any key to stop auto booting
- - use 'run setupdate' U-Boot command and then
- - use 'run migrate_v2.3b7' U-Boot command
-
-Boot from NAND:
-- EvalBoard V3.1a
- - do no longer press SW9
-- Iris V1.1a
- - do no longer short any pins of JP1
-- power cycle
-- upon first boot post-install scripts are run which takes around 2 minutes,
- please be patient
-
-If the boot loader on the module got corrupted this recovers it by loading
-U-Boot over USB into the module's RAM and executing it there:
-- EvalBoard V3.1a
- - connect USB B (X29) or USB micro A/B (X30) to development workstation using
- regular or micro USB cable
- - the jumper JP2 must be open
- - connect serial debug console as stated above
- - press and hold recovery mode switch (SW9) during power up
-- Iris V1.1a
- - connect USB micro A/B (X12) to development workstation using regular micro
- USB cable
- - connect serial debug console as stated above
- - short pin 1-2 of JP1 on Iris for RECOVERY
-(other carrier boards see http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/txx-recovery-mode)
-- make sure that the carrier board supports USB high speed
- - Iris & EvalBoard V3.1a OK, for other carrier boards see
- http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/usb-2.0-high-speed-%28480mbps%29
-- have the module in recovery mode and load U-Boot over USB to the module's RAM:
- - lsusb should show a '0955:7820 NVidia Corp. Tegra 2 AC100 developer mode'
- device if the module is in recovery mode
- - run ./update.sh -d
- - stop at the U-Boot prompt and begin the update as stated above using the
- 'run migrate_v2.3b7' command
