== How to cross compile U-Boot ==__TOC__
=== Overview of How-To ==<span style="color: #000000;">This page is meant to be a starting point for people to learn build a u-boot image and show to people the current status of different u-boot versions for IGEP Processor Boards.</span>
This How===<span style="color: #000000;">What is U-Boot?</span>===<span style="color: #000000;">[http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-To Boot/ Das U-Boot] (Universal Bootloader) is meant to be a starting point for people to learn build the u-an open source, primary boot software for IGEP v2 loader used in embedded devices as quickly and easily as possible.Its primary purpose in the shipping system is to load some operating system.</span>
This How<span style="color: #000000;">That means that U-To works with Boot is necessary to perform a certain task, but it's nothing you want to throw any significant resources at. Typically U-Boot is stored in relatively small NOR flash memory, which is expensive compared to the much larger NAND devices often used to store the operating system and the Ubuntu 8.04 IGEP v2application.0 SDK Virtual Machine 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.span>
=== Requirements ===
*'''Ubuntu 8.04 IGEP v2.0 SDK Virtual Machine'''
==Necessary package= Feedback =In order to compile the u-boot it is '''necessary''' to set up the Cross Compiler correctly. In this [[Set Up the Cross Compiler|post]] it is detailed how to set up correctly the Cross Compiler (and Contributing ===the desired version).
At any point, if you see a mistake you can contribute to this How{{Message/Information Message|message=The following steps has been tested using '''Ubuntu 16.04''' and the '''4.9 version''' of the '''arm-To.linux-'''<span class="mw-headline">'''gnueabihf''' compiler</span>}}
=== U-Boot for IGEP v2 ===In order to install the Compiler we can use this command:
First of all setup the build environment sourcing this script<pre>$ source /usr/local/poky/eabi sudo apt install gcc-glibc/arm/environment-setuplinux-gnueabihf</pre>==Download U-Boot Source==or<pre>$ source /usr/local/poky/eabi First of all, will be a distintion between '''NXP'''-glibc/environmentprocessors products and '''ARM'''-setupprocessors products. Because there are different kinds of U-arm-none-linux-gnueabi</pre>if you have updated your SDK environment to latest version (see [[Ubuntu804IGEPv20SDKVirtualMachine|Ubuntu 8.04 IGEP v2Boot depending of each processor.0 SDK Virtual Machine]])

This version support full OneNAND DDP* Once we know which U-Boot have we will clone the corresponding git repository.
Download the IGEP v2 U-Boot sources and follow next steps:
<pre>
$ wget http://www.igep.es/downloads/01-ISEE_Products/IGEPv2/SW_Releases/sources/u-boot-arm-2009.11-1.tar.gz
$ tar xzf u-boot-arm-2009.11-0.tar.gz
$ cd u-boot-arm-2009.11-0
$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- omap3_igep0020_config
$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
</pre>
The result will be an u-boot.bin file in arch/arm/boot directory.
