Subject: [ptxdist] How to create a board/platform from scratch (specifically iMX8M)
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2020 15:05:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2bb61da1-0b1a-ca5f-0ced-ea9628b94156@ppc-ag.de> (raw)

Hello everybody, is there a tutorial on creating a configuration for a 
new board starting from scratch, specifically for the iMX8M MCU ?

As far as I could find there are no public references on how to do it 
from scratch, especially u-Boot integration, image creation and so on. 
If I'm wrong kindly please correct me and point to the documentation.

Also did anybody ever tried ptxdist with a board holding iMX8M MCU, as 
far as I can see everything is now Yocto, or buildroot (rarely).

I think it's also because there are practically no sample configurations 
for modern ARM MCUs, buildroot for example comes with a number included 
configurations at least for the NXP EVKs.

I believe it will be a good idea to include a number of configurations 
for more popular development/evaluation kits, if not in the main 
ptxdist, at least as an add-on package, what is the list opinion ?


  Best regards,

  Mircea
