Technologic Systems TS-5x00 SBCs
|
||||
================================
|
||||
|
||||
This document explains how to set up a basic Buildroot system for the
|
||||
Technologic Systems TS-5x00 serie of x86-based Single Board Computers.
|
||||
|
||||
TS-5x00 Single Board Computers are based on the AMD Elan520 processor. For more
|
||||
information please have a look at http://wiki.embeddedarm.com/wiki/#AMD
|
||||
|
||||
The kernel configuration works for any AMD Elan520-based SBCs, but the support
|
||||
is enhanced for the TS-5500 and TS-5400 models (on-board devices registration
|
||||
and additional sysfs attributes under /sys/devices/platform/).
|
||||
|
||||
To build the default configuration you only have to:
|
||||
|
||||
$ make ts5x00_defconfig
|
||||
$ make
|
||||
|
||||
You will need a Compact Flash card of sufficient size and the first or only
|
||||
partition configured as Linux type, with the bootable flag.
|
||||
|
||||
You can transfer the system on the partition then optionally resize it with:
|
||||
|
||||
# dd if=output/images/rootfs.ext4 of=/dev/sdX1
|
||||
# resize2fs /dev/sdX1
|
||||
|
||||
Or you can just extract the root filesystem to the partition with:
|
||||
|
||||
# mount /dev/sdX1 /mnt
|
||||
# tar -pxf output/images/rootfs.tar -C /mnt
|
||||
# umount /mnt
|
||||
|
||||
To install the bootloader, you will need to copy the MBR:
|
||||
|
||||
# cat output/images/syslinux/mbr.bin > /dev/sdX
|
||||
|
||||
Then install SYSLINUX in the mounted partition:
|
||||
|
||||
# mount /dev/sdX1 /mnt
|
||||
# output/host/sbin/extlinux --install /mnt/boot/syslinux
|
||||
# umount /mnt
|
||||
|
||||
IMPORTANT: In order for the board to boot the Compact Flash with a recent
|
||||
config, the BIOS must use Logical Block Addressing (LBA). You can do it by
|
||||
choosing "Ide 0: AUTOCONFIG, LBA" under "IDE DRIVE GEOMETRY" in the "Basic CMOS
|
||||
Configuration" screen. Also, don't forget to set the 'active' (or 'bootable')
|
||||
flag on partition 1. For details about the CMOS setup, please see:
|
||||
http://wiki.embeddedarm.com/wiki/TS-5500#System_BIOS_Setup_Screens
|
||||
|
||||
Connect a terminal program to the rs232 connector marked "COM2"
|
||||
with baudrate set to 115200, insert the Compact Flash card into the socket,
|
||||
power up the board, and enjoy.
