Overview
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.
What is U-Boot?
Das U-Boot (Universal Bootloader) is an open source, primary boot loader used in embedded devices. It is available for a number of different computer architectures, including PPC, ARM, MIPS, AVR32, x86.
How to cross compile the U-Boot
In order to compile and build the U-Boot for IGEP PROCESSOR BOARDS you should set the CROSS_COMPILE variable. Set this to the prefix of your toolchain (including the trailing dash "-"). So if your toolchain is invoked as say arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc, just chop off that trailing gcc and that's what you use: arm-linux-gnueabihf-.
As example, once you've downloaded the u-boot source, you should follow these steps:
make CROSS_COMPILE=[cross compiler] [board config] make CROSS_COMPILE=[cross compiler]
Necessary package
Download & Prepare your U-BOOT
U-Boot Freescale-NXP iMX6 Series
Downloading binary files | |
---|---|
Clone the u-boot repo |
Clone the u-boot repository using git address: or |
Checkout u-boot repo |
Go to the u-boot-imx directory and checkout the version 2015.04.y as: $ cd u-boot-imx |
Set the board configuration | |
---|---|
IGEP0046 SMARC Quad | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- igep0046_imx6dl_2G_defconfig |
IGEP0046 SMARC Dual lite | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- igep0046_imx6q_2G_defconfig |
IGEP0046 SMARC Solo | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- xxxxx |
Build u-boot
You can build u-boot executing this command:
$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf-
U-Boot Texas Instruments Series

---|---|
Clone the u-boot repo |
Clone the u-boot repository using git address: $ git clone https://git.isee.biz/arm-boot/u-boot-arm.git |
Checkout u-boot repo |
Go to the u-boot-arm directory and checkout the isee_v2017.03 as: $ cd u-boot-arm $ git checkout remotes/origin/isee_v2017.03 -b isee_v2017.03 |
Set the board configuration | |
---|---|
IGEP COM AQUILA RB11 (256MB RAM) | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- am335x_igep0033_defconfig |
IGEP COM PROTON OMAP3530 (IGEP0032) | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- igep0032_defconfig |
IGEP SMARC AM335x (IGEP0034) | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- am335x_igep0034_defconfig |
IGEP SMARC AM335x (IGEP0034) Lite | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- am335x_igep0034_lite_defconfig |
IGEP COM Module DM3730 (IGEP0030) | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- igep0030_defconfig |
IGEP COM Module DM3730 (IGEP0020) | $ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- igep0020_defconfig |
Build u-boot
You can build u-boot executing this command:
$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf-
What next...
After build u-boot you can use it for boot the board, exist several options for boot, check the Hardware Reference Manual about the options available for your board.
- Boot from MicroSD Card.
- Boot from NAND flash.
- Boot from eMMC.
- Boot from USB.
- Boot from Network.
Configurations files
The result for iMX6 processor based will be a u-boot.imx.

Stable U-Boot
The software git repository is located here.
U-boot: OMAP3 boards, OMAP5 boards, AM335x boards is located here.
U-boot: iMX6 boards is located here.
u-boot firmware binaries can be downloaded from here.
[EOL] For OMAP3 based platforms, ISEE do not support u-boot, instead of, ISEE provides The IGEP X-loader
