    Hi,

    I bought AM1808 eXperimenter kit from Logic PD. The plan was to use this EVM as referenced one for my custom design. I made some tests with kit I bought and everything goes fine. Except AM1808, in my custom design I decide to use AM1806 TI Sitara processor. I don't need SPI and Ethernet Interface. Now my hardware is assembled and it is the time to boot UBL and U-BOOT. Because all components on custom board are the same as the components on AM1808 SOM M1 module (instead of UART debug port, I used UART0) I'd like to customize and rebuild AM1808 UBL and U-boot for my board. The problem is that I couldn't find source files. Can anybody upload this file?

     

    Best regards. Miroslav.

    Miroslav,

    You will need to register an account with us and then register your kit to that account. Once you have access to the downloads you can download the Linux User's Guide[1] or download the VM[2][3] which has the build environment all setup.

    From the Linux User's Guide:

    There are many places on the Internet where you can find the source code to U-Boot and the Linux
    kernel.

    Finding the appropriate package for your hardware can be difficult. One method is to:
    1. Log in to the TI website.
    2. Use the Keyword Search box to search for Linux PSP.
    3. Filter the search results by Software & Tool Folders.
    4. Find a heading that mentions Linux for Devices.
    5. Follow that link to an appropriate *.tgz file.

    Method two is:
    1. Log in to the TI website.
    2. Use the Search by Part Number box to search for the processor you are using.
    3. Locate the product folder for the processor.
    4. Follow the Software & Tools link.
