- JC 03:00 PM Software Development: RE: Writing UBIFS rootfs to AM3354 with 512MB NAND
- Thanks for the procedure. In case you weren't aware I wrote up a guide on doing this without the kernel being stored in the ubifs partition. [[UBIFS_Nand_Boot]]
I'll definitely try to take some time to add your method as an alternati... - MK 02:41 PM Software Development: RE: Writing UBIFS rootfs to AM3354 with 512MB NAND
- The procedure is simple - I create a UBI image (mkfs.ubifs & ubinize) with uImage and rootfile system volumes and programmed it into flash. There are lots of places on the web that explain this process, and once you have a UBI image you...

- Michael,
I've added your changes including my alternative change to a test branch on my machine. If you could test my alternative change I'll happily post it up on our site.
Thanks - JC 02:48 PM Software Development: RE: Writing UBIFS rootfs to AM3354 with 512MB NAND
- Ok cool. We've never tried storing the kernel in a ubifs partition. If you have it working I'd be interested in your procedure.

- Do you have a reference for your first change? Or did you find this through trial and error?

- Michael,
You should be able to replace your second change with: - MK 01:41 PM Software Development: RE: Writing UBIFS rootfs to AM3354 with 512MB NAND
- To boot from UBI with the 512MB NAND, I had to modify the 2013.01 branch bootloader:

- MK 03:40 PM Software Development: RE: Yocto in the future?
- One other thing... you will need to set defconfig to the appropriate config file - it is easiest just to copy this from the repo to meta-mityarm/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto-custom/defconfig .
Also, I set CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS=y in ... - MK 02:48 PM Software Development: RE: Yocto in the future?
- Sure. First I should make clear the Yocto version - it is *dylan*-9.0.0 , not denzil. This is also Yocto/Poky... lately Yocto has been claiming Angstrom and Linaro, though I can't say I completly get the nuance here... if anyone can ex...
- JC 08:42 AM Software Development: RE: Yocto in the future?
- Thanks Michael for the update. Would you be willing to share the steps you did to get it working or maybe just the working .bb files?
Thanks
