The goal of the document is to illustrate how to create an SD card with SP7021 Linux kernel and root file-system. Please follow the following steps.

1.

...

Download source files

Source files of SP7021 can be downloaded from GitHub or Yocto server of SP7021. Refer to https://github.com/sunplus-plus1/SP7021 or 2. HOW TO GET SOURCE FILE AND PACKAGE ) and run make config on top folder. After configuration menu pops up, choose board you have. For example, press 3 for SP7021 Demo Board (V3). Press enter and then press 1 for selecting C-chip. Finally, press 4 and then enter to start to prepare building environment. Refer to screenshot below:

...

Wait for ‘make config’ completing.

2. Run ‘make all’

Run make all to start to create image for SD card. After 'make all' completes, you will see screen like:

...

From information on screen, you find two partitions are created in the image for SD card. The first partition starts at sector 2048 and ends at sector 104447. Its size is 50 MiB and file-system is W95 FAT. The second partition starts at sector 104448 and ends at sector 137215. Its size is 16MiB and file-system is Linux (ext3).

3. Image files of output

The built image files are stored at out/boot2linux_SDcard/. Refer to screenshot of list of the folder:

...

ISPBOOOT.BIN is a binary file in which xboot is stored. xboot is a boot-loader which loads and runs u-boot during power-on booting processes. u-boot.img is u-boot image file. uImage is image file of compressed Linux kernel. uEnv.txt is an environment file of u-boot. u-boot will import the environment variables in the file after it completes initializing. If uenvcmd command is defined in uEnv.txt, u-boot will run the uenvcmd command after completing importing uEnv.txt. a926.img is an image file for processor A926. The default script of u-boot will load a926.img and run it if it exists.

ISP_SD_BOOOT.img is an image for burning an SD card. It contains all files in both partitions.

4. Write image to an SD card

Use an application to write image file, ISP_SD_BOOOT.img, to an SD card. The capacity of SD card should be larger than size of image file, ISP_SD_BOOOT.img. For example, if you want to use “Win32 Disk Imager” to write image to an SD card. First, download the it from https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/:

...

Then, install it and run. After application window pops, selection “Image File” and “Device”. Finally, press “Write” button to start to write. Refer to screenshot when “Win32 Disk Imager” is writing image file, ISP_SD_BOOOT.img, to an SD card (F:\):

...

Another example is using balenaEther. Refer to screenshot when balena Etcher” is writing image file, ISP_SD_BOOOT.img, to an SD card:

...

5. Boot from an SD card

Insert your SD card and set DIP-SW for booting from SD card. For example, if you are using SP7021 Demo Board (V1/V2/V3), you need to set DIP-SW to ON-ON for booting from SD card. Refer to picture below:

...

DIP-SW was set to ON-ON.

Turn on power of SP7021 board to start.

At the first time, you boot Linux from a new burn SD card. The built-in script of Linux to run fdisk command to extend the size of rootfs partition to the end of SD card and then re-boot. Refer to log while Linux script is extending size of rootfs:

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 499232.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

After completing rebooting, built-in script of Linux will run resize2fs to resize the rootfs file-system to make use of whole partition. It takes a while for completing resizing rootfs. Refer to screenshot when resizing:

...

You are ready to use SP7021 Linux after resizing. Refer to report of ll command for the contents of top folder of source of SP7021:

2. Configure environment

Get latest source files of SP7021 from git server of SP7021 (2. HOW TO GET SOURCE FILE AND PACKAGE) and run make config command on top folder. After configuration menu pops up, first, choose board you want to build image for. For example, press 4 for SP7021 Demo Board (V3). Second, press 2 to choose to build image for SD card and then enter to start to configure building environment. Refer to screenshot below:

...

make config is starting to configure building environment. It takes 1~2 minutes to complete.

3. Build all images

Run make all command to start to create image for SD card. It might take several minutes to complete. After 'make all' completes, you will see screen like:

...

From information on screenshot, two partitions are created in the image of SD card. The first partition starts at sector 2,048 and ends at sector 264,191. Its size is 128 MiB and file-system is W95 FAT32. The second partition starts at sector 264,192 and ends at sector 297,647. Its size is 16.3 MiB and file-system is Linux (ext4).

4. Image files

The built image files are stored at out/boot2linux_SDcard/. Refer to screenshot of list of the folder:

...

ISPBOOOT.BIN is a binary file in which xboot is stored. xboot is a boot-loader which loads and runs u-boot during power-on booting processes. u-boot.img is u-boot image file. u-boot is the second stage boot-loader. It loads and runs Linux kernel image. uImage is an image file of compressed Linux kernel with u-boot header. uEnv.txt is an environment file of u-boot. u-boot imports environment variables in the file after it completes initializing. If uenvcmd command is defined in uEnv.txt, u-boot runs the uenvcmd command after it completes importing uEnv.txt. a926.img is an image file for processor A926. A926 processor is designed for taking care of real-time tasks. The default script of u-boot will load and run a926.img it if it exists in root of boot partition.

ISP_SD_BOOOT.img is an image for burning an SD card. It actually contains all files in both partitions.

5. Write image to an SD card

Use an application to write image file, ISP_SD_BOOOT.img, to an SD card. The capacity of SD card should be larger than size of image file, ISP_SD_BOOOT.img. For example, if you want to use “Win32 Disk Imager” to write image to an SD card. First, download the it from https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/:

...

Then, install and run it. After application window pops, select “Image File” and “Device”. Finally, press “Write” button to start to write. Refer to screenshot when “Win32 Disk Imager” is writing image file, ISP_SD_BOOOT.img, to an SD card (G:\) below:

...

Another example is using “balenaEtcher”. Refer to screenshot when “balenaEtcher” is writing image file, ISP_SD_BOOOT.img, to an SD card below:

...

6. Boot from an SD card

Insert your SD card to SP7021 board and set its DIP-SW to “boot from SD card”. For example, if you are using SP7021 Demo Board (V1/V2/V3), you need to set DIP-SW to ON-ON for booting from SD card. Refer to picture below:

...

DIP-SW is set to ON-ON. Refer to Selection of boot devices of SP7021 for details of boot selection.

Turn on power of SP7021 board to start booting.

7. Extend size of root file-system

At the first time, Linux boots from a new SD card. The built-in script of Linux will run fdisk command to extend the size of rootfs partition to the end of SD card and then re-boot. Refer to log while Linux script is extending size of rootfs partition:

and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs

The latest command in the script is reboot command. You’ll see system re-boots after script completes extending size of rootfs partition.

After system re-boots successfully, built-in script of Linux will run resize2fs to resize the root file-system to make use of the whole partition (It was extended in previous step.). Refer to log (from u-boot to kernel):

Resizing completes. Available size of root file-system is 14.5 GB. You are ready to use SP7021 Linux.

Appendix: How to extend size of rootfs partition to maximum manually?

1. Use fdisk to extend size of rootfs partition to end of the SD card.

Run fdisk as below:

fdisk /dev/mmcblk1

Note that where SD card device is at /dev/mmcblk1.

...

c) Press p to list partitions of the SD card again.

d) Press n and, p, 2, 104448206848 and then 31950839 31116279 to add back the second (rootfs) partition. Note that 104448 206848 is start-LBA while 31950839 31116279 is new end-LBA of the partition.

...
