It supports Assabet amongst many other + hardware platforms. + +RedBoot is currently the recommended choice since it's the only one to have +networking support, and is the most actively maintained. + +Brief examples on how to boot Linux with RedBoot are shown below. But first +you need to have RedBoot installed in your flash memory. A known to work +precompiled RedBoot binary is available from the following location: + +ftp://ftp.netwinder.org/users/n/nico/ +ftp://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/arm/people/nico/ +ftp://ftp.handhelds.org/pub/linux/arm/sa-1100-patches/ + +Look for redboot-assabet*.tgz. Some installation infos are provided in +redboot-assabet*.txt. + + +Initial RedBoot configuration +----------------------------- + +The commands used here are explained in The RedBoot User's Guide available +on-line at http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/docs.html. +Please refer to it for explanations. + +If you have a CF network card (my Assabet kit contained a CF+ LP-E from +Socket Communications Inc.), you should strongly consider using it for TFTP +file transfers. You must insert it before RedBoot runs since it can't detect +it dynamically. + +To initialize the flash directory: + + fis init -f + +To initialize the non-volatile settings, like whether you want to use BOOTP or +a static IP address, etc, use this command: + + fconfig -i + + +Writing a kernel image into flash +--------------------------------- + +First, the kernel image must be loaded into RAM. If you have the zImage file +available on a TFTP server: + + load zImage -r -b 0x100000 + +If you rather want to use Y-Modem upload over the serial port: + + load -m ymodem -r -b 0x100000 + +To write it to flash: + + fis create "Linux kernel" -b 0x100000 -l 0xc0000 + + +Booting the kernel +------------------ + +The kernel still requires a filesystem to boot. A ramdisk image can be loaded +as follows: + + load ramdisk_image.gz -r -b 0x800000 + +Again, Y-Modem upload can be used instead of TFTP by replacing the file name +by '-y ymodem'. + +Now the kernel can be retrieved from flash like this: + + fis load "Linux kernel" + +or loaded as described previously. To boot the kernel: + + exec -b 0x100000 -l 0xc0000 + +The ramdisk image could be stored into flash as well, but there are better +solutions for on-flash filesystems as mentioned below. + + +Using JFFS2 +----------- + +Using JFFS2 (the Second Journalling Flash File System) is probably the most +convenient way to store a writable filesystem into flash. JFFS2 is used in +conjunction with the MTD layer which is responsible for low-level flash +management. More information on the Linux MTD can be found on-line at: +http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/. A JFFS howto with some infos about +creating JFFS/JFFS2 images is available from the same site. + +For instance, a sample JFFS2 image can be retrieved from the same FTP sites +mentioned below for the precompiled RedBoot image. + +To load this file: + + load sample_img.jffs2 -r -b 0x100000 + +The result should look like: + +RedBoot> load sample_img.jffs2 -r -b 0x100000 +Raw file loaded 0x00100000-0x00377424 + +Now we must know the size of the unallocated flash: + + fis free + +Result: + +RedBoot> fis free + 0x500E0000 .. 0x503C0000 + +The values above may be different depending on the size of the filesystem and +the type of flash. See their usage below as an example and take care of +substituting yours appropriately. + +We must determine some values: + +size of unallocated flash: 0x503c0000 - 0x500e0000 = 0x2e0000 +size of the filesystem image: 0x00377424 - 0x00100000 = 0x277424 + +We want to fit the filesystem image of course, but we also want to give it all +the remaining flash space as well. To write it: + + fis unlock -f 0x500E0000 -l 0x2e0000 + fis erase -f 0x500E0000 -l 0x2e0000 + fis write -b 0x100000 -l 0x277424 -f 0x500E0000 + fis create "JFFS2" -n -f 0x500E0000 -l 0x2e0000 + +Now the filesystem is associated to a MTD "partition" once Linux has discovered +what they are in the boot process.

Within Linux, this correspond to /dev/mtdblock2. +Therefore to boot Linux with the kernel and its root filesystem in flash, we +need this RedBoot command: + + fis load "Linux kernel" + exec -b 0x100000 -l 0xc0000 -c "root=/dev/mtdblock2" + +Of course other filesystems than JFFS might be used, like cramfs for example. +You might want to boot with a root filesystem over NFS, etc. It is also +possible, and sometimes more convenient, to flash a filesystem directly from +within Linux while booted from a ramdisk or NFS. The Linux MTD repository has +many tools to deal with flash memory as well, to erase it for example. JFFS2 +can then be mounted directly on a freshly erased partition and files can be +copied over directly. Etc... + + +RedBoot scripting +----------------- + +All the commands above aren't so useful if they have to be typed in every +time the Assabet is rebooted. Therefore it's possible to automatize the boot +process using RedBoot's scripting capability. + +For example, I use this to boot Linux with both the kernel and the ramdisk +images retrieved from a TFTP server on the network: + +RedBoot> fconfig +Run script at boot: false true +Boot script: +Enter script, terminate with empty line +>> load zImage -r -b 0x100000 +>> load ramdisk_ks.gz -r -b 0x800000 +>> exec -b 0x100000 -l 0xc0000 +>> +Boot script timeout (1000ms resolution): 3 +Use BOOTP for network configuration: true +GDB connection port: 9000 +Network debug at boot time: false +Update RedBoot non-volatile configuration - are you sure (y/n)? y + +Then, rebooting the Assabet is just a matter of waiting for the login prompt. + + + +Nicolas Pitre +nico@fluxnic.net +June 12, 2001 + + +Status of peripherals in -rmk tree (updated 14/10/2001) +------------------------------------------------------- + +Assabet: + Serial ports: + Radio: TX, RX, CTS, DSR, DCD, RI + PM: Not tested. + COM: TX, RX, CTS, DSR, DCD, RTS, DTR, PM + PM: Not tested. + I2C: Implemented, not fully tested. + L3: Fully tested, pass. + PM: Not tested. + + Video: + LCD: Fully tested.

The Itsy project is one of several +research projects at Compaq that are related to pocket computing. + +For more information, see: + + http://www.hpl.hp.com/downloads/crl/itsy/ + +Notes on initial 2.4 Itsy support (8/27/2000) : +The port was done on an Itsy version 1.5 machine with a daughtercard with +64 Meg of DRAM and 32 Meg of Flash. The initial work includes support for +serial console (to see what you're doing). No other devices have been +enabled. + +To build, do a "make menuconfig" (or xmenuconfig) and select Itsy support. +Disable Flash and LCD support. and then do a make zImage. +Finally, you will need to cd to arch/arm/boot/tools and execute a make there +to build the params-itsy program used to boot the kernel. + +In order to install the port of 2.4 to the itsy, You will need to set the +configuration parameters in the monitor as follows: +Arg 1:0x08340000, Arg2: 0xC0000000, Arg3:18 (0x12), Arg4:0 +Make sure the start-routine address is set to 0x00060000. + +Next, flash the params-itsy program to 0x00060000 ("p 1 0x00060000" in the +flash menu) Flash the kernel in arch/arm/boot/zImage into 0x08340000 +("p 1 0x00340000"). Finally flash an initial ramdisk into 0xC8000000 +("p 2 0x0") We used ramdisk-2-30.gz from the 0.11 version directory on +handhelds.org. + +The serial connection we established was at: + 8-bit data, no parity, 1 stop bit(s), 115200.00 b/s. in the monitor, in the +params-itsy program, and in the kernel itself. This can be changed, but +not easily. The monitor parameters are easily changed, the params program +setup is assembly outl's, and the kernel is a configuration item specific to +the itsy. (i.e. grep for CONFIG_SA1100_ITSY and you'll find where it is.) + + +This should get you a properly booting 2.4 kernel on the itsy. diff --git a/Documentation/arm/SA1100/LART b/Documentation/arm/SA1100/LART new file mode 100644 index 000000000..6d412b685 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/arm/SA1100/LART @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ +Linux Advanced Radio Terminal (LART) +------------------------------------ + +The LART is a small (7.5 x 10cm) SA-1100 board, designed for embedded +applications.
