Introduction

This page describes how to use the USB device (or OTG) port of your OMAP3 IGEP module to communicate with your PC.

We should directly power the board via the USB OTG port using a USB A type plug to mini B type plug cable. The HS USB OTG port is used as the default power input,

Once the board is up and running, we next turn to get ethernet connectivity over the USB OTG cable. By default the module interface will have the IP address 192.168.7.2

Linux Host USB Network Configuration

You should have the usbnet module available for your Linux kernel. On most distributions, this is the case by default. If this is not the case for your distribution, you will need to enable USB networking support in the kernel. If you build your own kernel then you want 'CDC Ethernet support' in USB Network adaptors.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx

In the file /etc/network/interfaces, you should add a section which looks like this:

auto usb0
iface usb0 inet static
    address 192.168.7.1
    network 192.168.7.0
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    broadcast 192.168.7.255
    gateway 192.168.7.1

Connect to the board using ssh

ssh -l root 192.168.7.2
 
The authenticity of host '192.168.7.2 (192.168.7.2)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 9d:0e:ba:02:2a:76:e4:5f:d1:c1:9b:2d:85:6c:83:d4.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added '192.168.7.2' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
root@192.168.7.2's password: [enter] (no password)

Updating and flashing the firmware

Latest is: Poky 3.3.1-3 (/etc/version - 201011081439)

Updating the firmware is done using a SD card, first we will create a minimal SD card and copy latest firmware image into the SD card

mkdir workdir && cd workdir
wget http://downloads.igep.es/poky/green-3.3/v3.3.1-3/poky-media-create
wget http://downloads.igep.es/poky/green-3.3/v3.3.1-3/poky-media-minimal-igep0030-sdcard-3.3.1-3.tar.gz
chmod +x poky-media-create

Next, insert your SD card into the host machine and 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.

./poky-media-create --mmc /dev/mmcblk0 --binary poky-media-minimal-igep0030-sdcard-3.3.1-3.tar.gz

Now it's time to download needed packages and copy into SD card

wget http://downloads.igep.es/poky/green-3.3/v3.3.1-3/poky-media-minimal-igep0030-flash-3.3.1-3.tar.gz
wget http://downloads.igep.es/poky/green-3.3/v3.3.1-3/u-boot-env_2010.06-0-r0_igep0030.ipk
mkdir disk && sudo mount /dev/sdb2 disk
sudo tar xzf poky-media-minimal-igep0030-flash-3.3.1-3.tar.gz -C disk/home/root/
sudo cp u-boot-env_2010.06-0-r0_igep0030.ipk disk/home/root
sudo umount disk && rmdir disk

Connect to device

ssh -l root 192.168.7.2

Some packages are missing in SD image, we should install

opkg install u-boot-env_2010.06-0-r0_igep0030.ipk

Next, enter into firmware directory

cd poky-media-minimal-igep0030-flash-3.3.1-3

By default the flash.sh script test fulls OneNAND, it takes a long time and it's not really necessary, we should speed up the flash process editing the flash.sh script and commenting next lines

# Test and mark OneNAND bad blocks
# for i in 0 1 2 3 4; do nandtest -m /dev/mtd${i}; done

Now you can run the flash script

./flash.sh

Troubleshooting

WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!

In the case of the SSH client in Linux, a changed host key results in the client refusing to connect and showing an remote host identification has changed error
