Finally, install bootpartition_arm64_lts_<version>.tgz and rootfs_ubuntu_<codename>_<arch>.tgz to SD/USB/SATA
storage drive on LS1043AXX machine by flex-installer as below:
$ flex-installer -b bootpartition_LS_arm64_<version>.tgz -r build/rfs/
rootfs_ubuntu_bionic_LS_arm64 -d /dev/sdX
How to install distro to SD/USB/SATA storage drive
Use the LS1028A BSP flex-installer to install all the release binaries and distro userland onto a storage media (e.g. SD/eMMC
card, USB/SATA disk) on the Linux host machine or on the target board.
Follow the instructions below:
Step 1: Plug SD/USB/SATA storage device to Linux Host machine or target board
Step 2: Install LS1028A BSP distro
• If the prebuilt distro tarball generated by Flexbuild is available on Linux host machine, run the following command:
$ flex-installer -b bootpartition_LS_arm64_lts_4.14.tgz -r rootfs_ubuntu_bionic_LS_arm64.tgz -m
ls1028ardb -d /dev/sdx
sdx should be the actual device name on the host machine, for example: sdb, sdc, mmcblk0, etc.
NOTE
• If the user wants to modify source code and build a custom LS1028A BSP distro with flexbuild, use the commands below on
the Linux host machine:
$ flex-builder -c linux:custom -a <arch> # customize kernel config in interactive menu
$ flex-builder -c linux -a <arch>
$ flex-builder -i mkfw -m <machine> -b <boottype>
$ flex-builder -i mkrfs -a <arch>
$ flex-builder -c apps -a <arch>
$ flex-builder -i merge-component -a <arch>
$ flex-builder -i mkbootpartition -a <arch>
$ flex-installer -b build/images/bootpartition_LS_arm64_lts_4.14 -r build/rfs/
rootfs_ubuntu_bionic_LS_arm64 -d /dev/sdx
• If the user wants to install disrto rootfs directly onto SD/USB/SATA disk on QorIQ board on which Linux is unavailable,
download the prebuilt lsdk_linux_<arch>_LS_tiny.itb image using the command:
$ wget https://www.nxp.com/lgfiles/sdk/ls1028a_bsp_03/lsdk_linux_arm64_LS_tiny.itb
Optionally, locally build it using the command below:
$ flex-builder -i mklinux -a <arch> to generate lsdk_linux_arm64_LS_tiny.itb
Put lsdk_linux_arm64_LS_tiny.itb to a TFTP service directory, then download it to the target board under U-Boot prompt as
below:
=> tftp a0000000 lsdk_linux_arm64_LS_tiny.itb
=> bootm a0000000#<board-name>
The <board-name> is: ls1028aqds or ls1028ardb.
• After booting and logging in to Linux on the target board, download the prebuilt distro tarballs generated by Flexbuild and
install using the commands below:
$ flex-installer -i pf -d /dev/sdx
$ cd /run/media/{mmcblk0p3 or sdx3}, then download distro images to SD/USB/SATA storage disk via
