Hi all,

 

First and foremost, is this the correct forum for newbies to ask follow up 
questions?

 

Also, please let me know if I haven't done enough "chewing" on the problem 
before posting up...


I followed the procedure below (if I understood everything correctly), but 
ended up getting a kernel panic (please see below) with the SD Card boot.


The lib modules, dtb files, and kernel image from the TI SDK (version 
am57xx-evm-03.02.00.05) were copied from the TI SDK folders 
(..../targetNFS).  Please note, I have net booted my 57xxEVM several times, 
and then replaced the /lib files on the SD Card, X15 image.  I'm not sure 
if I need a pristine copy...


Also I tried separately booting off of the zImage and vmlinux images from 
ti-sdk.... both resulting in a K-panic.


Also, I tried booting the stock SD card image of the beagleboard-x15 on my 
57xxEVM to a login prompt, and login, but with some issues (pru-related 
errors during kernel boot and fsck error).  Incidentally, it loaded the 
same dtb as gets loaded by the 57xxevm (without needing to specify this in 
uEnv.txt!??).

************************************************************************************************************************************

The following procedure was followed:

 

1) A 16 GB SD Card was imaged using the X-15 image, Debian 8.6 2016-11-06 4GB 
SD LXQT 
<https://debian.beagleboard.org/images/bbx15-debian-8.6-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-11-06-4gb.img.xz>,
 
via the getting started guide procedure (e.g. using 7-zip, imagewriter)

2) Replaced the /lib/modules/4.4.30-ti-r64 folder with the 'uname -r' 
folder = 4.4.32-gadde2ca9f8 folder from the ti-sdk installation. TI SDK 
(am57xx-evm-03.02.00.05)/targetNFS/lib/modules.

3) Same for /boot/dtbs

4) Copied the zimage-'uname -r' to the /boot folder on the SD card.

5) Inserted the SD card in the 57xx EVM (with the big LCD screen attached), 
and booted.
