Hi William,
I think your probably running a bit ahead of us.
Yes, looks like. :-) Well, my goal is to be able to build a small
embedded Linux distribution for ARM based SoC boards. Currently we have
the Beagleboard and the TI 8148 EVM to test, but sooner or later there
will be another board available.
Keep in mind that at this point meta-texasinstruments has not been
tested with the poky layer stack. It is a work in progress and is being
tested with a layer stack that includes oe-core + meta-oe + meta-angstrom.
Yes. I just tried out and ran into problems, that's what makes a
developers life challenging. ;-) I really don't mind about problems as
long as I have hope to fix them.
It is certainly in scope for meta-ti (new name) to work w/ a stock poky
release or snapshot, were just not verified that yet. As of now our
plan includes building and testing the following layer combinations:
oe-core + meta-ti
oe-core + meta-ti + meta-openembedded + meta-angstrom
poky + meta-ti
oe-core + meta-ti + meta-openembedded + meta-arago<= TI SDKs
Looks good, even that I faild in playing around with oe-core. One thing
that made me fail could be the SOCKS problem that I solved now. Maybe I
give it another test run. Anyway, yocto seems to fit perfectly for my
needs since its well documented and gave me some success events.
For you or any one else listing I should mention that TI SDKs today are
still based on oe classic. The layers we use for these are always
publicly available at http://arago-project.org
If you need something that has been tested by TI today, you may want to
look there. If your willing to work through a few bumps and want to
start on the new baseline then we would be happy to work with you on
poky/oe-core + meta-ti.
We expect meta-ti to have some boards tested to the above layer stacks
in November and most/all boards working by the end of the year. The
first TI SDKs built from the new structure will be in Q1 2012.
I would encourage you to subscribe to our brand spanking new meta-ti
mailing list to discuss, monitor and prod.
Ok, I subscribed to that list too.
I don't think any of this explains why you are having proxy issues and
we will let the rest of the thread play out for that. I just wanted to
set your expectations.
That's ok. Looks like the proxy issue is solved and my next obstacle in
the way to success is called u-boot_git.bb. So far I see that this
recipe fails during configure because it wants to make with a rule
"ti8148_evm_config_nand" that is not available in the u-boot sources
that we currently get from git.denx.de.
Humm, I need to be careful or I may sound like I know what I am doing.
However, a quick look[1] makes me think that AM8148 should be using
u-boot_2010.06-psp.

There are few things that could be going wrong. Why don't you move this
thread to meta-ti and Denys and Koen should be able to help you.
On the other hand I have the TI EZSDK kit available and there is an
u-boot version shipped that covers the TI8148 EVM board, so I guess all
I have to do is to include those sources in the meta-ti layer so that
u-boot will also build for my TI8148 EVM.
Well, I keep on testing and trying things out. Still new to the embedded
world after many years of desktop Linux.
Regards
Rainer
