I understand CONFIG_DEFAULT_FDT_FILE but what does CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE indicate? CONFIG_DEFAULT_DEVICE_TREE="socfpga_cyclone5_de10_nano" CONFIG_DEFAULT_FDT_FILE="socfpga_cyclone5_de10_nano.dtb" The DE10_NANO_SoC_GHRD *(Golden Hardware Reference Design) from the DE10-Nano CD uses

Is there a way to get the DE10 to use uenv.txt for boot environment info with the new u-boot? -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit"

[Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

OK that made some progress. It still looks like some command processor is running at the same time as the login process. It printed "U-Boot SPL 2017.05-dirty (Aug 23 2017 - 15:20:51) drivers/ddr/alt" on the serial console and then went quiet. Next thing I saw was that it had apparently loaded

[Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

I still have problems with the serial terminal. It seems to me like U-boot is starting up and receiving input that is putting it into command mode. Then it is like the process that outputs the text from the DE10 is being fed into the console input and confusing the heck out of the command

Re: [Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

Robert, Thanks. At least it loaded right up as shown on the serial terminal. Now it is at least looking for the ext4 filesystem before loading the ext2 filesystem. Something that I read suggested that the journal-ing stuff on ext4 could shorten the life of the uSD card but that the ext4 has

Re: [Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

Charles, What terminal software are you using? Is there any special setup required other than 115,200 baud and 8N1 (data,parity, and stop bits)? I can't get putty to work with the DE10 and I sometimes get those weird single column scroll down the right hand side with minicom. Alan --

Taking a break from watching the progress of the solar eclipse. What I am trying to do is get to the point of building a system that will run with HDMI before I start trying to add MachineKit and the hm2 stuff. At the moment the build doesn't seem to run HDMI. I thought I was using the same

[Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

I rebuilt the uSD with an ext2 filesystem. At first I got a bunch of messages related to the initialization. Then a bunch of characters seem to scroll down the right side of the "terminal" screen in a single column. Then after awhile, I got a login prompt in minicom, but I couldn't get it to

[Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

OK, my face is red. Yes I was plugging into the wrong port. It is running u-boot-with-spl but it is looking for an ext2 partition instead of an ext4. So after a while it starts looking for a USB device. -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github:

Re: [Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

Well it appears that the not so fun situation is the case. When I unplug power from the DE10-Nano the ftdi chip disappears. I also tried plugging DE10 cable into a powered hub instead of directly into the desktop box but same result. How about if I plug in the DE10, get the ttyUSB0 and then

Re: [Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

OK, I can now get a /dev/ttyUSB0. I had to add altera vendor id 0x09fb and DE10 product id 0x6810 to ftdi_sio. I have to plug in the USB cable from the DE10 to get ftdi_sio to load. Then by the time I get it plugged in and putty loaded there is nothing coming over the console. If I try to start

Re: [Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

Charles, I installed putty on my D525MW linux box, and I plugged a USB A to mini cable from the USB port on the desktop to the UartToUSB connector on the DE10. However, I don't know what pseudo serial port to watch for the Nano? Can you tell me how to figure out what /dev/tty device to use

Re: [Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

Robert Nelson's instructions don't show creating a FAT partition, just an A2 partition and an EXT4 partition. If I am reading his instructions correctly he is writing u-boot-with-spl.sfp in the A2 partition then creating ext4 file system in the 2nd partition. Then he makes creates the rootfs

Re: [Machinekit] Re: Will DE0-Nano image work on a DE10-Nano board?

Charles, That worked. I now have the DE10-Nano booting into Debian Stretch console. I just formatted the Angstrom partitition, expanded the partition to fill the uSD card, made an ext4 partition out of it, and then followed Robert Nelson's instructions to expand the minfs tar into the

Charles, I understand how ignoring HDMI to start may be easier, however, the reason that I bought the DE10 instead of the DE0 is the HDMI. :-( Alan On Tuesday, August 8, 2017 at 4:01:07 AM UTC-7, Charles Steinkuehler wrote: > > Yes, it would be much easier to load a single FPGA image via
