Hello to the YOCTO Community, I am curious about the following HW/FW configuration, for the YOCTO Project?
Did anybody managed to run the following: INTEL Atom E3900 APL-I with U-Boot and YOCTO on the top of it? E3900 -> IFWI -> MBR -> U-Boot -> YOCTO ?! Here are some explanations regarding the terms: *IFWI is the Intel FirmWare Interface, a binary blob loaded from the eMMC boot partition that executes a secondary loader (in this case U-Boot) from the main eMMC. IFWI blobs for the APL-I are provided by Intel and are specific for different flavors of the MID silicon.* *Normal IFWI eMMC boot process* 1. *On-chip boot rom inits eMMC and loads IFWI from the MMC boot partitions* 2. *IFWI looks for OSIP header at top of eMMC (MBR boot block)* 3. *The header directs IFWI to the start, size, load address, and entry of U-Boot in eMMC* 4. *(need clarification) If u-boot is not found, try the alt u-boot image at 5MB into the eMMC* 5. *U-Boot is loaded into RAM and executed* *OSIP stands for OS Image Profile, and it is nothing more and less than INTEL name for very known old fashion MBR, considering DATA structure.* Thank you in advance, Zoran
