Note : All steps are executed on the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and as a root user. Most of the steps are similar Robert C Nelson BBB Wiki.

Basic Requirements

ARM cross compiler linaro gcc (~/)

Download and extract the ARM Cross compiler linaro gcc . Supposedly we mark that directory as root (~/) 

wget -c https://launchpad.net/linaro-toolchain-binaries/trunk/2013.10/+download/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2013.10_linux.tar.xz
tar xJf gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2013.10_linux.tar.xz
export CC='pwd'/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2013.10_linux/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-

Test the version of the gcc path set above to verify it will work 

${CC}gcc –version
arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc (crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-4.8-2013.10 - Linaro GCC 2013.10) 4.8.2 20131014 (prerelease)
Copyright (C) 2013 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.  There is NO
warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

if the above test fails, verify that you have 32bit libraries installed on your development system , and execute following : 

 apt-get install lbs
 apt-get install ia32-libs

Bootloader U-boot (~/)

Bootloader used is Das U-Boot, and its works like charm. Das U-Boot -- the Universal Boot Loader http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot

Download: 

~/
git clone git://git.denx.de/u-boot.git
cd u-boot/
git checkout v2013.10 -b tmp

Patches: After cloning git takes you to the u-boot directory of the working directory, else go to the u-boot directory 

~/u-boot
wget https://raw.github.com/eewiki/u-boot-patches/master/v2013.10/0001-am335x_evm-uEnv.txt-bootz-n-fixes.patch
patch -p1 < 0001-am335x_evm-uEnv.txt-bootz-n-fixes.patch

Configure and Build: 

~/u-boot
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC} distclean
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC} am335x_evm_config
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=${CC}

Upgrade distro "device-tree-compiler" package

 (~/) {In the working directory}
wget -c https://raw.github.com/RobertCNelson/tools/master/pkgs/dtc.sh
chmod +x dtc.sh
./dtc.sh

Linux kernel (~/)

We follow RobertCNelson branch of the kernel. For more details, please go to BBB-RobertCNelson-Main Wiki

Git setup and Kernel Compile

git clone git://github.com/RobertCNelson/linux-dev.git
cd linux-dev/

checkout v3.8.xbranch (full cape support) There are other versions,check here BBB-RobertCNelson-Main Wiki 

git checkout origin/am335x-v3.8 -b eewiki

Now setup the git and compile the kernel 

apt-get update
apt-get install device-tree-compiler lzma lzop u-boot-tools libncurses5-dev
git config --global user.name "username"
git config --global user.email "useremailid"
./build_kernel.sh

Add USB and PPS driver

While compiling for first time, LINUX_GIT is set by default(check its path in build_kernel.sh and /tools/rebuild.sh). Set it to 'pwd'/linux-dev/ignore/linux-src/ in build_kernel.sh and /tools/rebuild.sh, so use following for later use: 

export LINUX_GIT='pwd'/linux-dev/ignore/linux-src/

Please download our USB drivers patch which is required to use the WCDMA modem on Cape. 

wget wcdma_patch_vayu_usb_drivers.patch
patch -p1 < wcdma_patch_vayu_usb_drivers.patch

Alternate to this, if patch is not applied clean, do following

Locate the file option.c under: /linux/drivers/usb/serial/option.c Edit the file to add following

  • Define on top following
 /*  Yantrr Strongrising products */
#define YANTRR_VENDOR_ID                         0x21f5
#define YANTRR_PRODUCT_VAYU3G                   0x2012
  • Add following structure inside static struct usb_device_id option_ids[], you would find lot of modem defined here
 /*  Yantrr Strongrising products */
 { USB_DEVICE(YANTRR_VENDOR_ID, YANTRR_PRODUCT_VAYU3G) },
  • You may create your local patch based on kernel for next time patch
  • This option adding would help udev to detect the device

Rebuild kernel

Now rebuild the kernel while enabling the pps drivers in makemenuconfig and after USB drivers patch applied. 

./tools/rebuild.sh
  • Following figures illustrate how to enable the PPS drivers and also some settings in USB drivers section
  • First image shows the first screen of makemenuconfig while recompiling the kernel. Select Device drivers .
Select device drivers
  • In the device drivers window, scroll down to select PPS support.
Select PPS support
  • In PPS support, select PPS client using GPIO as built-in driver. It should look like as illustrated in figure below :
Select PPS client using GPIO
  • Exit PPS Support and select USB support and ensure that EHCI HCD (USB2.0) support is enabled. Please match other options too from the figure illustrated below :
USB Support


At the end of compilation , copy and paste the line with kernel_version, which is as follows 

export kernel_version=3.X.Y-Z          ( in our case 3.8.13-bone32)

Root file system (~/)

Download and extract the minimal root file system for debian wheezy : 

wget -c https://rcn-ee.net//deb/minfs/wheezy/debian-7.3-minimal-armhf-2013-12-18.tar.xz
md5sum debian-7.3-minimal-armhf-2013-12-18.tar.xz
tar xf debian-7.3-minimal-armhf-2013-12-18.tar.xz

Setup MicroSD card (as root)

Format and prepare a microSD card

Attach a microSD card of size atleast 2GB to the desktop with the help of a card reader.

Use lsblk to determine device id of sd card , it is either /dev/mmcblkx or /dev/sdx , so supposedly : 

export DISK=/dev/mmcblk0
dd if=/dev/zero of=${DISK} bs=1M
sfdisk --in-order --Linux --unit M ${DISK} <<-__EOF__
1,48,0xE,*
,,,-
__EOF__
dd if=/dev/zero of=${DISK} bs=512 count=1

Format partitions, for DISK=/dev/mmcblk0 

mkfs.vfat -F 16 ${DISK}p1 -n boot
mkfs.ext4 ${DISK}p2 -L rootfs

Or for DISK=/dev/sdX 

mkfs.vfat -F 16 ${DISK}1 -n boot
mkfs.ext4 ${DISK}2 -L rootfs

After formatting, mount the partitions. Mount paths may vary, sometimes they are auto mounted, otherwise do following 

mkdir -p /media/boot/
mkdir -p /media/rootfs/
mount ${DISK}p1 /media/boot/        or mount ${DISK}1 /media/boot/
mount ${DISK}p2 /media/rootfs/      or mount ${DISK}2 /media/rootfs/

Install Bootloader

Now, Install bootloader by executing following commands (~/) : 

cp -v ./u-boot/MLO  /media/boo	t/
cp -v ./u-boot/u-boot.img  /media/boot/

Then, create “uEnv.txt” boot script and copy following in it: (nano uEnv.txt) 

#u-boot eMMC specific overrides; Angstrom Distribution (BeagleBone Black) 2013-06-20
kernel_file=zImage

#zImage:
uenvcmd=run loadzimage; run loadfdt; run mmcargs; bootz ${loadaddr} - ${fdtaddr}

#zImage + uInitrd: where uInitrd has to be generated on the running system.
#boot_fdt=run loadzimage; run loadinitrd; run loadfdt
#uenvcmd=run boot_fdt; run mmcargs; bootz ${loadaddr} 0x81000000:${initrd_size} ${fdtaddr}

 
cp -v ./uEnv.txt  /media/boot/

Install Kernel and Root file system

Now, we have to Install Kernel and root file system

Copy root file system (~/) 

tar xfvp ./*-*-*-armhf-*/armhf-rootfs-*.tar -C /media/rootfs/

Copy kernel files 

cp -v ./linux-dev/deploy/${kernel_version}.zImage /media/boot/zImage
mkdir -p /media/boot/dtbs/
tar xfov ./linux-dev/deploy/${kernel_version}-dtbs.tar.gz -C /media/boot/dtbs/
tar xfv ./linux-dev/deploy/${kernel_version}-firmware.tar.gz -C /media/rootfs/lib/firmware
tar xfv ./linux-dev/deploy/${kernel_version}-modules.tar.gz -C /media/rootfs/

Make a File systems table

edit /etc/fstab: 

nano /media/rootfs/etc/fstab

and copy following 

/dev/mmcblk0p2	/		auto	errors=remount-ro	0	1
/dev/mmcblk0p1	/boot/uboot	auto	defaults		0	2

Networking

edit /etc/network/interfaces 

nano /media/rootfs/etc/network/interfaces

and copy following (fixed ip) 

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet static
    address 192.168.1.150
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    network 192.168.1.0
    gateway 192.168.1.1

Networking: using a shared sd card with multiple beaglebone 

nano /media/rootfs/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

and copy following 

# BeagleBone: net device ()
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"

Enable serial login to system 

nano /media/rootfs/etc/inittab

and copy following at the end of inittab 

T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyO0 115200 vt102

Remove microsd card 

sync
umount /media/boot/
umount /media/rootfs/

Extras

USB Gadget (http access to beaglebone black over usb)

Run beaglebone black with the created sd card and then do the following in it over eth0 ssh 

 apt-get install udhcpd

Edit the file at /etc/default/udhcpd for enabling udhcpd

Edit /etc/network/interfaces to add following at the end 

 
Ethernet/RNDIS gadget (g_ether)
... or on host side, usbnet and random hwaddr
iface usb0 inet static
    address 192.168.7.2
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    network 192.168.7.0
    gateway 192.168.7.1
