I try to figure out how to create and boot on a SD card with Buildroot I first followed this tutorial to create a SD card with an Ubuntu rootfs to see if it works : https://eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/BeagleBone+Blue It did.
Then I tried to build a full image with Buildroot using the beaglebone_defconfig configuration file. The result is completely different. The first tutorial gives me a single partition with U-Boot written first and the kernel and the DTB files in a boot/ subdirectory. and the build from Buildroot gives me 2 partitions "boot" and "rootfs" with the bootloader, the kernel and the DTB file in the first one and the rootfs in the second one. Unfortunately that didn't work. I edited the beaglebone board configuration to add the am335x-boneblue.dts source file and the U-boot patches provided in the first tutorial without success. In the configuration file, the Kernel sources are fetched from a TI repository. Why the official BeagleBone linux kernel repository on GitHub isn't used instead? I tried with the official kernel without success. Where could I find the conditions to make the BeagleBone Blue boot on my SD card? The BeagleBone Black and Blue seems to be based on the same hardware but why are the SD card partitions so different? -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
