How to get the Linaro distribution

1,477 bytes removed, 11:28, 4 February 2014
Install Linaro 12.04 nano distribution
== Overview of How-To ==
This How-To is meant to be a starting point for people to learn install a Linaro image for OMAP3-based IGEP platforms as quickly and easily as possible.  Unless otherwise noted, this How-To works with the '''Ubuntu 10.10''' but most of the contents are valid also for other GNU/Linux distributions. We do not issue any guarantee that this will work on other distributions. <br>
== Feedback and Contributing ==
*Handset (A KDE/Plasma based user interface)
=== Linaro 10.11 === *https://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/1011/Final Install needed packages, on Ubuntu   sudo apt-get install uboot-mkimage uuid-runtime realpath Next create a working directory   mkdir linaro cd linaro Install linaro tools for creating the SD card as follows:  sudo apt-get install linaro-image-tools (This was tested to work on ubuntu 10.10 at 2011-03-30.)  In case this doesn't work, you You can alternatively download latest the linaro tools to a location in your PATH, e.g. $HOME/bin/rootfs releases from here:
wget {| width="800" border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1"|-| Type | Release | File|-| Nano | 12.04 | http://downloads.igepisee.esbiz/pub/distros/linaro/10linaro-nano-12.04-0.tar.gz|-| Nano | 11.09 | http://downloads.isee.biz/pub/distros/linaro/linaro-hwpack11.09-nano-n-tar-20110929-0.tar.gz|-create wget | Netbook | 12.01 | http://downloads.igepisee.esbiz/pub/distros/linaro/10.11/linaro-hwpack12.01.tar.gz|-install wget | Headless | 10.xx | http://downloads.igepisee.esbiz/pub/distros/linaro/10.11/linaro-mediam-headless-create cp linarotar-media20101108-create $HOME/bin2.tar.gz cp linaro-hwpack-* $HOME/bin|}
Now it's time to download Or directly from the software image and the hardware pack for our target. We've download the Netbook style UI image, but you can download another (http://releases.linarowebsite.org)
wget http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-m/netbook/final/linaro-m-netbook-efl-tar-20101108-1.tar.gz
wget http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-m/hwpacks/final/hwpack_linaro-igep_20101109-1_armel.tar.gz
The linaro netbook image comes with a preinstalled user 'linaro'. In case you need it, the password is also 'linaro'== Install Linaro 12.04 nano distribution ==
Installing the build onto a media that your hardware can recognise is done using Download the linaro-media-create script. package tarball
#Insert your SD card into the host machine (the machine you downloaded the image and hwpack to) wget http://downloads. #Ensure you know the device node for your sd card readerisee. In the following example we assume biz/pub/distros/devlinaro/mmcblk0. If you are unsure of the device node of your SD card, remove and reinsert the card and type dmesg on the command line. The last few lines should give you the device node of the card you just inserted. #In the directory where you downloaded the image and hwpack run linaro-medianano-create (NOTE: be sure to delete all partitions on the SD Card before running linaro12.04-media-create otherwise it will fail!)0.tar.gz
linaro-media-Once the file is downloaded you can create bootable SD--rootfs ext3 --mmc /dev/mmcblk0 --dev igep \ --binary linaro-m-netbook-efl-tar-20101108-1.tar.gz \ --hwpack hwpack_linaro-igep_20101109-1_armel.tar.gzCard, under Linux, untar the package
Finally, plug the SD card in your board and boot tar xzf linaro-nano-12. 04-0.tar.gz cd linaro-nano-12.04-0
== Linaro wifi kernel support ==Insert a SD-Card media and use the igep-media-create script to create a bootable SD-Card.
You can download the kernel images release 2 .6.35/igep-media-create -–mmc &lt;mmc&gt; --image &lt;image file&gt; --1010.17machine &lt;machine&nbspgt;with wifi support from our website:
#[httpwhere://downloads.igep.es/linaro/10.11/linux-image-2.6.35-1010-linaro-omap_2.6.35-1010.17_armel.deb Kernel link]. #[http://downloads.igep.es/linaro/10.11/linux-headers-2.6.35-1010-linaro-omap_2.6.35-1010.17_armel.deb Kernel headers.]
Just download on &lt;mmc&gt; - is the freshly booted boardSD-Card device of your computer. You can install them on &lt;image file&gt; - is the board as followsfile that contains bootloader, kernel and rootfs image.&lt;machine&gt; - is the IGEP Processor Board. Available options are:
sudo apt*igep0020 -get install linux-headers-2.6.35-1010For IGEP v2 Processor Board sudo dpkg -i linux-image-2.6.35-1010*igep0030 -linaro-omap_2.6.35-1010.17_armel.debFor IGEP COM MODULE Processor Board sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.35-1010-linaro-omap_2.6.35*igep0032 -1010.17_armel.debFor IGEP COM PROTON Processor Board
== SGX Acceleration [EXPERIMENTAL!] ==For example, assuming the SD-card device takes '/dev/sdf' and you have an IGEPv2 board ('igep0020'), type
This worked for me, no idea if it works for anyone! ./igep-media-create --mmc /dev/sdf --machine igep0020 --image linaro-nano-12.04-0.tar.bz2
1. Install For example, assuming the linux kernel headers for the linaro version that is running on your board in my case SD-card device takes '/dev/sdb' and you have an IGEP COM&nbsp;MODULE ('igep0030'), type
sudo apt./igep-media-create --get install linuxmmc /dev/sdb -headers-2.6.35machine igep0030 -1008-image linaro-omapnano-12.04-0.tar.bz2
2These methods should give you a bootable SD-card. Get Insert the openGL backend: bootable SD-card media into the micro-SD card socket of IGEP device and power on it. This should result in a running system with a Linaro nano image.
== Install Other Linaro Distributions sudo apt-get install libegl1-sgx-omap3 libgles1-sgx-omap3 libgles2-sgx-omap3==
Now you can run Please follow the demos that are mentioned in the Ubuntu guidenext [http://labs.isee.biz/index. Have fun&nbsp;:)php/How_to_boot_from_MicroSD_Card howto]. <br>
