The following instructions are correct for developers using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Installing Required Packages

In order to build and deploy Linux to your ADSP-SC5xx development board you will need to install several additional packages on to your host PC. This can be performed using the following command and respond yes(y) to any prompts:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib build-essential chrpath socat libsdl1.2-dev xterm u-boot-tools openssl curl tftpd-hpa python

Setting Up TFTP

We use the TFTP server on the host to transfer images to the EZ-KIT. This needs to be configured for use:

$ sudo vi /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

#add following commands 
TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/tftpboot"
TFTP_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0:69"
TFTP_OPTIONS="--secure"

$ sudo mkdir /tftpboot
$ sudo chmod 777 /tftpboot
$ sudo service tftpd-hpa restart

Setting Up NFS Server

We use the NFS server on the host to transfer images to the EZ-KIT. This needs to be configured for use:

$ sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
$ sudo vi /etc/exports

#Add following commands
/romfs *(rw,sync,no_root_squash,no_subtree_check)

$ sudo mkdir /romfs/
$ sudo chmod 777 /romfs/
$ sudo service nfs-kernel-server start

Configuring Minicom

In order to communicate with the U-Boot bootloader, a UART connection must be made between the host PC and the development board. It is recommended that you use minicom to do this. Minicom must be configured to connect to U-Boot correctly.

On the host PC open a terminal and execute the following commands:

$ sudo apt-get install minicom
$ sudo minicom -s

            | Exit                     |
            | Exit from Minicom        |
