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>

<br> === 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 can alternatively download latest linaro tools to a location in your PATH, e.g. $HOME/bin/:   wget http://downloads.igep.es/linaro/10.11/linaro-hwpack-create wget http://downloads.igep.es/linaro/10.11/linaro-hwpack-install wget http://downloads.igep.es/linaro/10.11/linaro-media-create cp linaro-media-create $HOME/bin cp linaro-hwpack-* $HOME/bin Now it's time to download 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.linaro.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'.  Installing the build onto a media that your hardware can recognise is done using Or directly from the linaro-media-create scriptwebsite.
#Insert your SD card into the host machine (the machine you downloaded the image and hwpack to).
#Ensure you know the device node for your sd card reader. In the following example we assume /dev/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-media-create (NOTE: be sure to delete all partitions on the SD Card before running linaro-media-create otherwise it will fail!)

Finally, plug Download the SD card in your board and boot. linaro package tarball
== Linaro wifi kernel support ==wget http://downloads.isee.biz/pub/distros/linaro/linaro-nano-12.04-0.tar.gz
You Once the file is downloaded you can download create bootable SD-Card, under Linux, untar the kernel images release 2.6.35-1010.17&nbsp;with wifi support from our website: package
#[http://downloads.igep.es/ tar xzf linaro/10.11/linux-image-2.6.35-1010-linaronano-omap_2.612.3504-10100.17_armel.deb Kernel link]tar. gz#[http://downloads.igep.es/ cd linaro/10.11/linux-headers-2.6.35-1010-linaronano-omap_2.612.3504-1010.17_armel.deb Kernel headers.]0
Just download on Insert a SD-Card media and use the freshly booted boardigep-media-create script to create a bootable SD-Card. You can install them on the board as follows:
sudo apt./igep-get install linuxmedia-headerscreate -2.6.35–mmc &lt;mmc&gt; -1010 sudo dpkg -i linux-image&lt;image file&gt; -2.6.35-1010-linaro-omap_2.6.35-1010.17_armel.deb sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-2.6.35-1010-linaro-omap_2.6.35-1010.17_armel.debmachine &lt;machine&gt;
== SGX Acceleration [EXPERIMENTAL!] ==where:
This worked for me&lt;mmc&gt; - is the SD-Card device of your computer.&lt;image file&gt; - is the file that contains bootloader, no idea if it works for anyone! kernel and rootfs image.&lt;machine&gt; - is the IGEP Processor Board. Available options are:
1. Install the linux kernel headers for the linaro version that is running on your board in my case *igep0020 - For IGEP v2 Processor Board *igep0030 - For IGEP COM MODULE Processor Board *igep0032 - For IGEP COM PROTON Processor Board
sudo aptFor example, assuming the SD-get install linux-headers-2.6.35-1008-linaro-omapcard device takes '/dev/sdf' and you have an IGEPv2 board ('igep0020'), type
2 . Get the openGL backend: /igep-media-create --mmc /dev/sdf --machine igep0020 --image linaro-nano-12.04-0.tar.bz2
sudo aptFor example, assuming the SD-get install libegl1-sgx-omap3 libgles1-sgx-omap3 libgles2-sgx-omap3card device takes '/dev/sdb' and you have an IGEP COM&nbsp;MODULE ('igep0030'), type
Now you can run the demos that are mentioned in the Ubuntu guide . Have fun&nbsp;:)/igep-media-create --mmc /dev/sdb --machine igep0030 --image linaro-nano-12. 04-0.tar.bz2
== Audio Output ==These methods should give you a bootable SD-card. Insert the 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.
