+How to Update U-Boot on Pico-imx6ul board
|
|
|
|
+-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Required software on the host PC:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+- imx_usb_loader: https://github.com/boundarydevices/imx_usb_loader
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+- dfu-util: http://dfu-util.sourceforge.net/releases/
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Build U-Boot for Pico:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+$ make mrproper
|
|
|
|
+$ make pico-imx6ul_defconfig
|
|
|
|
+$ make
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+This will generate the U-Boot binary called u-boot.imx.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Put pico board in USB download mode (refer to the document
|
|
|
|
+http://www.wandboard.org/images/hobbit/hobbitboard-imx6ul-reva1.pdf page 15)
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Connect a USB to serial adapter between the host PC and pico
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Connect a USB cable between the OTG pico port and the host PC
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Open a terminal program such as minicom
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Copy u-boot.imx to the imx_usb_loader folder.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Load u-boot.imx via USB:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+$ sudo ./imx_usb u-boot.imx
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Then U-Boot should start and its messages will appear in the console program.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Use the default environment variables:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+=> env default -f -a
|
|
|
|
+=> saveenv
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Run the DFU command:
|
|
|
|
+=> dfu 0 mmc 0
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Transfer u-boot.imx that will be flashed into the eMMC:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+$ sudo dfu-util -D u-boot.imx -a boot
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Then on the U-Boot prompt the following message should be seen after a
|
|
|
|
+successful upgrade:
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+#DOWNLOAD ... OK
|
|
|
|
+Ctrl+C to exit ...
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Remove power from the pico board.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Put pico board into normal boot mode
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Power up the board and the new updated U-Boot should boot from eMMC.
