4.14.6.3.3. How to get barebox for ‘KARO’s Starterkit 5’

Using the default configuration:

make ARCH=arm tx28stk5_defconfig

Build the binary image:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=armv5compiler

NOTE: replace the armv5compiler with your ARM v5 cross compiler.

This produces the following images:

  • barebox-karo-tx28-bootstream.img - Use with the bcb command
  • barebox-karo-tx28-sd.img - Use for SD cards
  • barebox-karo-tx28-2nd.img - Use for 2nd stage booting (with bootm - boot an application image)
