Instructions for https://android-build.linaro.org/builds/~linaro-android_snowball-jb-gcc47-igloo-stable-blob/
= Get artifacts =
Scroll down to the 'Downloads' section
Click on each link to download:
boot.tar.bz2
system.tar.bz2
userdata.tar.bz2
Accept the end-user license agreement
= Get linaro image tools =
Run these commands to get all the dependencies for linaro-image-tools and the tip of linaro-image-tools
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:linaro-maintainers/tools
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install linaro-image-tools
If you're using a released build (with a -release or from releases.linaro.org), skip this step.
If you're using a "tip" build do not skip the step and do the following:
$ sudo apt-get install bzr
$ bzr branch lp:linaro-image-tools
= Create media (SD card) =
Disable automount (instructions provided for Gnome)
$ TMP1=$(dconf read /org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount)
$ TMP2=$(dconf read /org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount-open)
$ dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount false
$ dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount-open false
Insert an SD card
Run 'dmesg'
$ dmesg
Look for a line that looks like the following at the end of the log
[288582.790722] sdc: sdc1 sdc2 sdc3 sdc4 < sdc5 sdc6 >
WARNING: In the next step, make sure you use /dev/"whatever you see above".
You can erase your hard drive with the wrong parameter.
Run linaro image tools
$ linaro-android-media-create --mmc /dev/sdc --dev snowball_sd --boot boot.tar.bz2 --system system.tar.bz2 --userdata userdata.tar.bz2
If you're using tip of linaro image tools
$ ./linaro-image-tools/linaro-android-media-create --mmc /dev/sdc --dev snowball_sd --boot boot.tar.bz2 --system system.tar.bz2 --userdata userdata.tar.bz2
Restore automount
$ dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount $TMP1
$ dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/media-handling/automount-open $TMP2
Remove the SD card from the device writer and plug it into the board. Note that the linaro android snowball build only supports booting from sdcard at this time.
= Check console output =
Plug in an USB-to-serial converter and run minicom
$ minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB0 -w -C minicom.txt
= Notes =
* Note 1 - Outdated U-Boot
During the 12.05 cycle, U-Boot changed and must be upgraded in eMMC if your
boot line is older than: U-boot 2012.04.01 (May 24 2012 - 19:50:12)
The solution is to do:
If you don't have riff:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:igloocommunity-maintainers/snowball-tools
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install riff
Download startupfiles from
http://www.igloocommunity.org/download/linaro/startupfiles/latest
$ tar -xvf startupfiles_3.0.8-0.tar.gz
$ linaro-android-media-create --image-file snowball.img --image-size 1500M --dev snowball_emmc --boot boot.tar.bz2 --system system.tar.bz2 --userdata userdata.tar.bz2
(OPTIONAL) Remove the PPA
$ sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:igloocommunity-maintainers/snowball-tools
Turn off the board
$ sudo riff -f snowball.img
Connect your board using the OTG USB port (next to power supply port) to
your PC
Turn on the board
Riff will detect the board and start the execution
When execution is finalized riff will exit
On the first boot, the user interface can take up to 10 minutes to come up.
Please be patient. If the board doesn't come up, you might be affected by
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/823313 bug.
