AGFB014R24B2E2EV : Evaluation board not booting with eMMC memory

Dear Experts,

We received the new AGFB014R24B2E2EV Eval board when we switched on the board the HPS Linux running was noticed on UART when Out of box experience daughter card was plugged in. No prints are seen when the NAND daughter card is plugged in and the eMMC flash boot option is chosen.

Please help.

Thanks

      Hi,

      We verified the jumper settings as per manual but still no prints observed on the UART.

      Thanks

      Hi,

      eMMC U-Boot, Linux is working when we program through ARM DS. However, custom RFS is not getting generated & program.

      Thanks

    Hi,


    So is the eMMC flash is now booting using all default settings?


    I guess, may I know the steps that you run to build the customer RFS?

      Hi,

      Yes, eMMC flash image is booting.

      We are trying to follow the instructions for custom RFS:

      Customizing/modify the Rootfs recipe in: recipes-images/poky/gsrd-console-image.bb

      1. add your c file in recipes-images/poky/files (mkdir)
      2. In recipes-images/poky/gsrd-console-image.bb, add the followings
        1. FILESEXTRAPATHS:prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:"
        2. SRC_URI:append="<CFILE>"
      3. Add this under nfs_rootfs() function:
        1. cp ${WORKDIR}/<CFILE> ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}/home/root
      4. Run bitbake_build and see if the c program in present in the compiled rfs by launching it on the board

      Not seen the 'recipes-images/poky/gsrd-console-image.bb' files in the GSRD setup. Is it possible to share full path of it?

      Also,

      As per the website - https://www.rocketboards.org/foswiki/Projects/AgilexSoCWithEMMCStorageOnHPS#Writing_the_eMMC_Image there is a seperate option to Build Rootfs:

      -Any steps available to add our files to this rootfs compilation?

      Thanks

    Hi,


    Yea, I am having issues as well with the git clone repo, let me check on our side on this issue. By default, before you run bitbake, you may change/set your settings/configs in then run the bitbake to take affect.

    Hi,


    After doing the git clone, could you locate this?:

    yocto\gsrd-socfpga\meta-intel-fpga-refdes\recipes-images\poky
