Introduction

The i.MX 6SoloLite EVK Linux BSP is a collection of binary, source code, and support

files that can be used to create U-Boot boot loader, Linux kernel image, and a root file

system for i.MX 6SoloLite EVK development systems .

2.1 Boot Loader

The i.MX 6SoloLite EVK Linux delivery package contains the following U-Boot

bootloader binary:

L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_images_MX6S/u-boot-mx6sl-evk.bin

This bootloader supports SD/MMC, eMMC4.3, eMMC4.4, eMMC4.41, SPI-NOR

2.2 Linux Kernel Image

This Freescale i.MX BSP contains a pre-built kernel image based on the 3.0.35 version of

the Linux kernel. The i.MX 6SoloLite EVK kernel image is located at the following path:

L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_images_MX6S/uImage

2.3 Gnome Mobile Root File System

The root file system package provides busybox, common libraries, and other fundamental

elements.

The i.MX 6SoloLite EVK BSP package contains the following rootfs file system:

L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_images_MX6S/rootfs.ext2.gz

i.MX 6SoloLite EVK Linux User's Guide, Rev. L3.0.35_4.1.0, 09/2013

Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. 7

The rootfs.ext2.gz file system includes Freescale specific libraries and gnome GUI. It can

be mounted as NFS (see Setting rootfs for NFS), or its contents can be stored on a boot

media such as Secure Digital (SD) card.

Chapter 3

Building the Linux Platform

This chapter explains how to set up the build environment, install and build LTIB, set the

rootfs for NFS, and set up the host environment.

Note that not all of the steps are required for every boot mode. The only required steps

are in Setting Up the Linux Host and Installing and Building LTIB.

3.1 Setting Up the Linux Host

See the Setting Up a Linux Host for LTIB Builds on Ubuntu 9.04 document included in

the release package to set up the Linux host server.

NOTE

The following new packages are needed for this release:

• asciidoc

• texlive-latex-base

• dblatex xutils-dev

For more details, see Setting Up a Linux Host for LTIB Builds

on Ubuntu 9.04.

3.2 Installing and Building LTIB

NOTE

To run LTIB, some host packages are needed. If any error

related to a host package is raised, install the host package.

1. Remove all previously-installed packages from /opt/freescale/pkgs/.

2. Install the LTIB package, not as root, in a location such as /home/user/:

tar zxvf L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_source.tar.gz

i.MX 6SoloLite EVK Linux User's Guide, Rev. L3.0.35_4.1.0, 09/2013

Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. 9

./L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_source/install

This command installs LTIB to your directory.

3. Build LTIB:

cd <LTIB directory>

./ltib -m config

4. Select platform to Freescale i.MX reference boards and exit, saving the changes.

At the next menu, select platform type as imx6s and package profile. Exit and save

the new configuration. Only the profiles of Min profile, FSL gnome release

packages, and mfg firmware profile pass build tests.

NOTE

You can use the ./ltib -m selectype command to change the

profile after the first selection.

5. To build U-Boot for i.MX 6SoloLite EVK board, select "Choose your board for U-

Boot" as "mx6sl_evk". Please note this option is only for U-Boot. For the kernel

image, the current default kernel configuration builds a single image that works for

all i.MX 6 boards except i.MX 6SoloLite boards. i.MX 6SoloLite boards use 'MX6S'

--- Choose your board

board (mx6sl_evk) --->

7. Close the configuration screen to save the changes.

8. Run the following command:

./ltib

When this procedure is completed, the kernel image and the U-Boot images are

located at: rootfs/boot/

9. Some other useful LTIB commands are:

./ltib -help

/* List the packages in LTIB */

./ltib –m listpkgs

/* Get the source code of one package. The source code will be extracted to <ltib folder>/

rpm/BUILD/ */

./ltib -m prep -p <package name>

/* This command is used to build the source code of <package name>. If you modify the source

code, you can rebuild the source code by this command */

./ltib -m scbuild -p <package name>

/* Install one package to rootfs */

./ltib -m scdeploy -p <package name>
