CROSS_COMPILE

path

MS_SIZE_FLAG

is set to

_8MB_SIZE_

(because of limitation of Accelent board for Mass storage

demo)

3.3.2.14.OS Image Creation

To compile the kernel and create the final image to be downloaded into the IDP target, use the command:

#cd /usr/src/linux-otg/
#make dep zImage modules modules_install

1362_jffs_rootfs jffs_image


As a result, a number of files starting with "nk_" will be created in the root Linux directory:

nk_jffs_flash.bin

:

This image includes the kernel and root filesystem

nk_kernel_flash.bin

: This image is just the kernel image, useful if you already have a good root fs

image and just need to reflash the new kernel.

nk_kernel.bin

:

This is an image that will be loaded into RAM from the card without flashing

into ROM. It’s quite useful for debugging or preserving your flash image.


Whichever image you choose to use, copy it to the PCMCIA card and rename it "

nk.bin

". The card filename

MUST be

nk.bin

or the bootloader, which is WinCE bootloader, will ignore it.

3.3.2.15.Serial Communication for Debug Output


On the host PC running Linux, minicon can be used to receive debug output (generated by printk) from Accelent
IDP. A null-modem cable is required to connect FFUART(J5) port on Accelent IDP board and a COM port host
PC. Set Baud rate to 115200, data bits = 8, Parity = none, Stop bits = 1, Flow control = hardware.

3.3.3.

Accelent IDP Setup


Follow the instructions given in the Quick Start Guide IDP for Intel PXA250 Applications Processor Linux OS document
from the Accelent CD to set up the Accelent IDP.

1. The boot loader

boot.bin

(from the accelent CD) does not support ISP1362 add-on card. Use the

boot loader from the ISP1362 stack release (/home/1362/AccelentIDP/boot.bin).

2. To load the new kernel and root file system from the development environment, copy the

nk_jffs_flash.bin

from the earlier section as

nk.bin

to the CompactFlash card, and boot up the

Accelent IDP. Follow the instructions on the Quick Start Guide IDP for Intel PXA250 Applications Processor
Linux OS
document for detailed loading/booting instructions.

3. Log on to the Accelent IDP as root and execute the following command (This is applicable for the demo

environment setup only)

#cd /home/1362/objs
#./init_setup


This will make the initial setup for the Accelent IDP for ISP1362 Linux stack. Note that you need to
execute this script for the first time only. Connect the Accelent IDP to the Linux host system as a mass
storage device, and perform the following on the host system:

4. Initialize and load the ISP1362 stack on to the target system as mentioned in Section 4.2 and connect the

Accelent IDP to the host Linux PC as a mass storage device.
