最初是想把整个ubuntu移植到MX51开发板,因为项目不需要运行桌面系统,所以只移植了一个基本的ubuntu core系统
1. 下载ubuntu core rootfs,关于ubuntu core参考https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-core/releases/12.04/release/ubuntu-core-12.04.3-core-armhf.tar.gz
这个镜像就是一个rootfs,可以作为根文件系统使用。
2. 把镜像烧写到开发板的一个分区上
- adb shell进入开发板,busybox mkfs.ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
- adb shell进入开发板,mount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
- adb push ubuntu-core-12.04.3-core-armhf.tar.gz /mnt/
- adb shell进入开发板,cd /mnt; busybox tar ubuntu-core-12.04.3-core-armhf.tar.gz. 在/dev/block/mmcblk0p1这个分区上建立了一个完整的rootfs,文件系统类型为ext2
3. 我的arm开发板是mx51,修改uboot启动参数如下:
set bootargs_android 'setenv bootargs ${bootargs_base} init=/init rdinit=asdf root=b301 rootfs=ext2 di0_primary video=mxcdi0fb:RGB24,CLAA-WVGA'
粗体是我增加的参数,解释下增加的几个参数:
- rdinit=asdf,rdinit=后的asdf是胡乱写的,这样会设置ramdisk_execute_command为asdf,就导致内核代码
sys_access访问失败,调用prepare_namespace 从mmcblk0p1安装根文件系统if (sys_access((const char __user *) ramdisk_execute_command, 0) != 0) {
- root=b301,是/dev/block/mmcblk0p1的16进制主设备号b3和从设备号01
- rootfs=ext2,文件系统类型
4. 启动开发板,会打印出如下信息:
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) on device 179:1.
表示已经mount 根文件系统成功。
这一步可能会出现如下错误:
udevd[123]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
udevd[123]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
udevd[123]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
udevd[123]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
udevd[123]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
udevd[123]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
如果你出现了,那么执行第5步
5. 按链接给的patch, 修改内核
https://github.com/genesi/linux-legacy/commit/a84fac75f38de592e530a2f9f982d7aafec6c288
6. 编译内核并烧写到开发板上,重启系统后,不会再打印step4的错误
7. 支持LCD console,修改内核配置文件如下
@@ -1228,8 +1228,14 @@ CONFIG_FB_MXC_SYNC_PANEL=y
# Console display driver support
#
# CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE is not set
+# CONFIG_VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK is not set
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
-# CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE is not set
+CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y
+# CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DETECT_PRIMARY is not set
+# CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_ROTATION is not set
+# CONFIG_FONTS is not set
+CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y
+CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y
重新编译内核,重启系统后,可在LCD看到ubuntu的登录console
8 支持serial console,我的开发板没有usbhost,不能接usb键盘,所以需要用serial console控制
- 在/etc/init.d增加文件/etc/init/ttymxc.conf
# console - getty # # This service maintains a getty on console from the point the system is # started until it is shut down again. start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345] and container CONTAINER=lxc stop on runlevel [!2345] respawn exec /sbin/getty -L 115200 ttymxc0 vt102
- 修改rootfs的文件/etc/rc.local,如下
#!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. start ttymxc0 exit 0
重新启动后,即可在串口得到控制台信息。
