**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Dec 14 02:59:56 2021 Dec 14 03:17:35 jkridner: I just noticed that lately all of the BBBs we've been getting have the wrong board id in eeprom, they're claiming to be industrial (A335BNLTEIA0) when they're not Dec 14 03:38:40 in fact all of the boards since the seeed transition have wrong board id, and also have production year and production week swapped Dec 14 10:19:26 hi Dec 14 10:19:43 Good day! Dec 14 10:20:01 I bought beagle board x15 today Dec 14 10:20:55 I am trying to boot from SD card but it is not happening Dec 14 10:21:17 By default, it is booting from eMMC Dec 14 10:21:50 Let me know the procedure to boot from SD card and also boot strap settings for the board Dec 14 10:23:06 Please help me with this issue Dec 14 11:17:01 Guest56: please don't send unsolicited private messages... and I'm pretty sure all that's needed to boot from sd card is inserting a bootable sd card Dec 14 11:18:24 i have downloaded the buildroot and generated the below images Dec 14 11:18:45 MLO, u-boot.img, zImage, am57xx-beagle-x15.dtb Dec 14 11:18:47 I have no experience with buildroot Dec 14 11:19:54 Ok..I am using ubuntu.. let me know the process for building and loading images to sd card Dec 14 11:20:39 By default, when there is no sd card, bbx15 is loading its image from eMMX Dec 14 11:20:44 eMMC* Dec 14 11:20:59 you can find the latest officially supported debian images here: https://beagleboard.org/latest-images Dec 14 11:21:12 yes correct, if there's no bootable sd card inserted it will boot from eMMC Dec 14 11:21:32 i got the images.. i want the procedure to load the images to sd card Dec 14 11:21:51 i have found the procedure online...but it is not working Dec 14 11:22:51 I have made 2 partitions in sd card and programmed the boot files in partition-1 and rfs in partition-2 Dec 14 11:23:02 if you're talking about a filesystem image (like the official ones) the recommended way to flash those to SD card is using Balena Etcher (etcher.io). if you're talking about the buildroot output files then no idea since I have no experience with buildroot Dec 14 11:23:34 I also used balena etcher Dec 14 11:23:59 please share the working image path if u have one Dec 14 11:24:17 i have downloaded debian images from the path u mentioned.. Dec 14 11:24:28 the first download link at the page I just mentioned: https://debian.beagleboard.org/images/am57xx-debian-10.3-iot-tidl-armhf-2020-04-06-6gb.img.xz Dec 14 11:24:39 in general any image for AM572x should work Dec 14 11:25:37 should i directly load this image to sd card using balena etchefr Dec 14 11:25:48 yes Dec 14 11:26:09 i already did this with different image Dec 14 11:26:14 what image? Dec 14 11:26:39 (file path or full name) Dec 14 11:28:24 Images under "Debian console images" in the same url Dec 14 11:28:54 should be fine, if you get the AM5729 image Dec 14 11:29:14 Ok.. Dec 14 11:29:49 Image verification is getting failed when trying to load with balena etcher Dec 14 11:30:24 that typically indicates the SD card is defective Dec 14 11:30:52 (resulting in data corruption) Dec 14 11:31:05 e.g. due to wear-out Dec 14 11:31:56 Ok Dec 14 11:32:08 I will try with other sd card Dec 14 11:32:39 actually, this sd card is working fine for all other images.. Dec 14 11:32:51 i have loaded raspi image Dec 14 11:32:54 earlier Dec 14 11:33:18 you can try again, but Etcher doesn't care what's on the image, it's just a big pile of bytes as far as it's concerned Dec 14 11:33:31 Ok Dec 14 11:35:12 if you're concerned about the download's integrity, check the sha256sum of the .img.xz file matches the one listed on the download page (below the download link) Dec 14 11:36:00 there's also more recent testing images here: https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian#Debian_Buster_Console_Snapshot Dec 14 11:36:44 Are there any ubuntu images available Dec 14 11:37:19 not any official ones anyway... but ubuntu and debian are pretty similar anyway, especially if you want a lean console image it would be silly to use ubuntu instead of debian Dec 14 11:38:11 Ok.. Dec 14 11:39:01 Also i am using serial debug console Dec 14 11:39:28 it is not generating clear text Dec 14 11:39:37 wrong baudrate? Dec 14 11:39:47 no i have used 115200 Dec 14 11:40:01 8 bit no parity Dec 14 11:40:10 no flow control Dec 14 11:40:37 as per the spec .. Dec 14 11:40:39 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/beagleboard/beagleboard-x15/B1/BeagleBoard-X15_Quick-Start-Guide.pdf Dec 14 11:41:12 i used usb to serial converter Dec 14 11:41:28 only 3 pins TX, RX, GND Dec 14 11:41:34 3.3v ? Dec 14 11:41:52 FTDI? Dec 14 11:42:07 3.3v ftdi or similar Dec 14 11:42:13 i am using prolific usb to serial conv Dec 14 11:43:05 https://www.indiamart.com/proddetail/cadyce-ca-us9-usb-to-serial-rs-232-converter-20392273055.html Dec 14 11:44:13 that is not compatible and might even damage the board Dec 14 11:44:38 it needs to be 3.3v ttl serial, _not_ RS-232 (which uses inverted logic and typically much higher voltages) Dec 14 11:45:07 Ok Dec 14 11:45:34 suggest me the 3.3v ttl converter available Dec 14 11:46:12 there's a bunch of examples here: https://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBone_Black_Serial Dec 14 11:46:55 Ok..i will check this type of FTDI Dec 14 11:48:43 I got below message after the completion of image validation in balena etcher Dec 14 11:49:40 "Something went wrong..If it is compressed image, please check the archieve is not corrupted..cannot read property 'message'  of null" Dec 14 11:49:47 o.O Dec 14 11:51:50 looks like a bug in etcher: https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/issues/3648 Dec 14 11:52:41 you can try downloading the previous version, 1.7.0 instead: https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/releases/tag/v1.7.0 Dec 14 11:53:03 Ok Dec 14 11:54:11 I will try with older version Dec 14 11:54:32 yeah, looks like a bunch of people are having the same problem, and it was introduced in 1.7.1 (released two weeks ago) Dec 14 12:06:18 OK Dec 14 12:06:26 Now it is working Dec 14 15:46:04 or just ignore the error, it doesn't break anything i've seen.. Dec 14 17:06:08 hmmm, any simple ways to setup a dmtimer to output a stable clock signal? Dec 14 22:51:00 would updateing the gui bea good candidate for threading Dec 14 22:51:13 mattb0ne: no Dec 14 22:51:55 that's one thing you'll absolutely want to (or possibly even be required to) perform on the main thread **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Dec 15 02:59:57 2021
