<section begin=IGEPv2 /br><section begin=IGEP_COM_MODULE /><section begin=IGEP_COM_PROTON />Next, we will use the application 'tar' to untar (uncompress) the downloaded file.
Open a Terminal session and go to the directory where you have #Select Products -&gt; Processor Boards #Click on your downloaded fileprocessor board product. #Click on Software tab #Click on IGEP Firmware #Select Download icon. Then type:
Once the file is downloaded you can create bootable SD-Card, under Linux, untar the IGEP <pre>tar jxf igep_firmware-yocto-*.tar xzf poky.bz2cd igep_firmware-yocto-*</pre> Insert a SD-Card media and use the igep-media-create script to copy the firmwareto SD-3Card media. <pre>.3/igep-media-create -–mmc &lt;mmc&gt; --image &lt;image file&gt; --machine <machine></pre> where:<br>&lt;mmc&gt; - is the SD-Card device of your computer.1<br>&lt;image file&gt; -11is the file that contains bootloader, kernel and rootfs image.tar<br>&lt;machine&gt; - is the IGEP Processor Board.gzAvailable options are:
Next, you can enter the extracted directory:*igep0020 - For IGEP v2 Processor Board *igep0030 - For IGEP COM MODULE Processor Board *igep0032 - For IGEP COM PROTON Processor Board*igep0033 - For IGEP COM AQUILA Processor Board*igep0046 - For IGEP iMX6 Processor Board
cd poky-firmware-3.3.1-1/
For example, assuming the SD-card device takes '/dev/sdf' and you have an IGEPv2 board ('igep0020'), type<br>
<pre>./igep-media-create --mmc /dev/sdf --machine igep0020 --image demo-image-sato-igep00x0.tar.bz2</pre>
For example, assuming the SD-card device takes '/dev/sdb' and you have an IGEP COM&nbsp;MODULE ('igep0030'), type<br>
<pre>./igep-media-create --mmc /dev/sdb --machine igep0030 --image demo-image-sato-igep00x0.tar.bz2</pre>
These methods should give you a bootable SD-card. <br>
'''Create a MicroSD Card'''<br>
Now, lets create the MicroSD card with the latest firmware. Before it, you have to know '''which 'Booting IGEP device' is the MicroSD listed in the /devand login/ directoryconnect methods''', a directory where the detected devices are listed by the Linux system.
To '''know Insert the bootable SD-card media into the micro-SD card socket of IGEP device name''', follow this instructions:and power on it. This should result in a running system with Sato graphical desktop root filesystem built by Yocto.
'''Insert your MicroSD card''' into If you want login in/connect to the Linux host machine (the machine where system, you have downloaded the firmware).several options: <br>
In *'''Serial debug link''', you should just plug serial cable to your Terminal sessioncomputer<br> *'''Ethernet''', you should assign an IP in the range 192.168.5.[2-254] and connect to target using a SSH client and connecting to 192.168.5.1&nbsp;<br> *'''Wifi''', connect to IGEP_xx network, run a dynamic IP should be assigned in your host and you can sign into the following target connecting to 192.168.6.1 <br> *'''system commandUSB ethernet gadget''':, connect a IGEP device to USB port of your computer, dynamic IP should be assigned in your host and you can sign into the target connecting to 192.168.7.1 o (if available) Graphical interface on plugged DVI/TFT display and USB Keyboard in IGEP device
dmesgThe root password is empty, so to log in type ''''root'''' for the user name and hit 'Enter' at the Password prompt: (''empty password'') and you should be in. <br>
This instruction will prompt all the '''system traces'''. If your MicroSD card has actually been detected by the systemThen, '''the last lines of that prompt''' will correspond to the MicroSD card detection you could play and mountingfun with IGEP&nbsp;board.
Check For example, you could flash the '''MicroSD name and path''', for examplelatest software image into internal FLASH memory ( [http: /dev/sdb and remember itlabs.isee.biz/index.php/How_to_flash_the_latest_software_image How to flash the latest software image] )
Now you can '''run the following script''' in the directory you have just extracted, and you will have to add some parameters. In your Terminal session, type:<br>
<br>
.{{Message/poky-media-create --mmc [device] --binary poky-image-sato-igep00x0-[timestamp].tar.gz --machine [machine]Forum}}
where:* '''[device]''' is the SD card device name, for example: /dev/sdb* '''[timestamp]''' the parameter --binary is actually the name of another .tar.gz compressed file that you have already extracted in the previous steps. If you want to auto-complete the [timestamp] parameter, press TAB in the ''timestamp'' when writing the instruction and the system will write the name of the file automatically.* '''[machine]''' is the machine name, options are:<section end=IGEPv2 /><section end=IGEP_COM_MODULE /><section end=IGEP_COM_PROTON /><section begin=IGEPv2 />** igep0020 , for IGEPv2<section end=IGEPv2 /><section begin=IGEP_COM_MODULE />** igep0030 , for IGEP COM MODULE<section end=IGEP_COM_MODULE /><section begin=IGEP_COM_PROTON />** igep0032 , for IGEP COM PROTON<section end=IGEP_COM_PROTON /> <section begin=IGEPv2 /><section begin=IGEP_COM_MODULE /><section begin=IGEP_COM_PROTON />This instruction will last a few minutes. When the process ends, you will have a '''MicroSD card with the latest software''' on it. Finally plug the MicroSD card into IGEP Processor Board and power up your board. <section end=IGEPv2 /><section end=IGEP_COM_MODULE /><section end=IGEP_COM_PROTON /> [[Category:Software]][[Category:Boot loadersBoot_loaders]][[Category:Software distributionsSoftware_distributions]][[Category:Linux KernelLinux_Kernel]]
