[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/4] board/lego/ev3: Create images using genimage

Sun Oct 30 23:32:24 UTC 2016
This adds a script to create SD card and flash images for LEGO MINDSTORMS
EV3 using the genimage tool.
The default kernel config had to be modifed to add support for squashfs
and to add a ram disk.

Boot process :
--------------
-The u-boot on-board the EV3 brick has provision to boot a Linux kernel from the
-external µSD card. It will try to load a uImage from the first µSD card
-partition, which must be formatted with a FAT filesystem.
+The EV3 boots from an EEPROM. This loads whatever is on the built-in 16MB flash
+(usually U-Boot) and runs it. The U-Boot from the official LEGO firmware and
+mainline U-Boot will attempt to boot a Linux kernel from the external µSD card.
+It will try to load a uImage (and optional boot.scr) from the first µSD card
+partition, which must be formatted with a FAT filesystem. If no µSD is found or
+it does not contain a uImage file, then the EV3 will boot the uImage from from
+the built-in 16MB flash.
How to build it
===============
@@ -54,74 +58,26 @@ Result of the build
After building, you should obtain this tree:
output/images/
+ ├── boot.vfat
+ ├── flash.bin
├── rootfs.ext2
├── rootfs.ext3 -> rootfs.ext2
+ ├── rootfs.squashfs
+ ├── sdcard.img
+ ├── u-boot.bin
└── uImage
-Prepare your SDcard
-===================
-
-The following µSD card layout is recommended:
-
-- First partition formatted with a FAT filesystem, containing the uImage.
-- Second partition formatted as ext2 or ext3, containing the root filesystem.
-
-Create the SDcard partition table
-----------------------------------
-
-Determine the device associated to the SD card :
-
- $ cat /proc/partitions
-
-Let's assume it is /dev/mmcblk0 :
-
- $ sudo fdisk /dev/mmcblk0
-
-Delete all previous partitions by creating a new disklabel with 'o', then
-create the new partition table, using these options, pressing enter after each
-one:
-
- * n p 1 2048 +10M t c
- * n p 2 22528 +256M
-
-Using the 'p' option, the SD card's partition must look like this :
-
-Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
-/dev/mmcblk0p1 2048 22527 10240 c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
-/dev/mmcblk0p2 22528 546815 262144 83 Linux
-
-Then write the partition table using 'w' and exit.
-
-Make partition one a DOS partition :
-
- $ sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1
-
-Install the binaries to the SDcard
-----------------------------------
-
-Remember your binaries are located in output/images/, go inside that directory :
-
- $ cd output/images
-
-Copy the Linux kernel:
-
- $ sudo mkdir /mnt/sdcard
- $ sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/sdcard
- $ sudo cp uImage /mnt/sdcard
- $ sudo umount /mnt/sdcard
-
-Copy the rootfs :
-
- $ sudo dd if=rootfs.ext3 of=/dev/mmcblk0p2 bs=1M
- $ sync
+Installation
+============
-It's Done!
+You can use either flash.bin or the sdcard.img. To load flash.bin, use the
+official Lego Mindstorms EV3 programming software firmware update tool to load
+the image. To use sdcard.img, use a disk writing tool such as Etcher or dd to
+write the image to the µSD card.
Finish
======
-Eject your µSD card, insert it in your Lego EV3, and power it up.
-
To have a serial console, you will need a proper USB to Lego serial port
adapter plugged into the EV3 sensors port 1.
