I don't know if it was already there for a longer time, or that I missed it before,
Yesterday and today I found significant new and interesting content for our SAMA5D4 board.
The content is available from the Linux4SAM home page, and from the side menu. There's a step-by-step explanation on loading a bootloader and binary to the board, including screen captures.
And there's a new release of the Linux demos, 4.7. I've installed that yesterday and the Linux distro works flawlessly. I'm using the board headless, so I haven't run any of the graphical demos.
The image loaded very smoothly.
I just had to adapt demo_linux_nandflash.bat to match the COM port that's assigned on my PC (I first started SAM-BA in GUI mode to check the COM name it's expecting..
sam-ba.exe \USBserial\COM6 at91sama5 .....
The board started up perfectly. Impressed.
Now for me it's back to finding out if the distro contains the ADC driver, and what it's name is.
