Android: http://downloads.element14.com/downloads/riotboard/Android/image_SVN2597.zip

Android Tools: http://downloads.element14.com/downloads/riotboard/Android/Tools.zip

Didn´t see other working links by now.

It´s really sad that e14 didn´t get anything working by now.

Months passed and nothing much happened...

Can't use this guide...

RIoTboard: Updating OS images in Windows Environment

The guide uses SVN 2487, the image is available here : http://downloads.element14.com/downloads/riotboard/Linux/image_SVN2487.zip.

no tools...

for Android tools check this: http://downloads.element14.com/downloads/riotboard/Android/Tools.zip

you can use  MFG Tools  as otto explained here. Mainline Kernel and U-Boot with MFGTool

its a nice tutorial.

With the tutorial (RIoTboard: Updating OS images in Windows Environment)  I have SVN 2487.  But the guide assumes you have MfgTool with:

Profiles\MX6DL Linux Update\OS Firmware.

When you download from free scale it doesn't have that profile. it has

Profiles\MX6Q Linux Update

I get no device detected in MfgTools.  I don't know how to make my own profile.  I have no idea how to make my own xml for flashing the board.

I tried following Mainline Kernel and U-Boot with MFGTool example but there seems to be some steps that are assumed that I don't know.  What does the finial "cfg.ini"

look like, it only shows the default.  Do I change that? Do I copy my files into the profile that is there or do I create a new one.  I tried it both ways but get error after error in mfgtools. like:

Error:

ModuleID[2] LevelID[1]: Error: Can't find the specified list(Sabre-SD) in the xml file

ModuleID[2] LevelID[1]: Parse ucl script failed, error code: 12

Updated cfg.ini to be:

[profiles]

chip = MX6Q Linux Update

[platform]

board = SabreSD

[LIST]

name = i.MX6SOLO-DEBIAN-RIOT-eMMC

Error:

.....\Profiles\MX6Q Linux Update\OS Firmware\u-boot-mx6solo-riot.bin failed to open.errcode is 2

ModuleID[2] LevelID[1]: Parse ucl script failed, error code: 4

Added u-boot-mx6solo-riot.bin to the MX6Q Linux Update profile.

Error:

bootscript failed to open.errcode is 2

ModuleID[2] LevelID[1]: Parse ucl script failed, error code: 4

Added bootscript to files

Error:

files\zImage failed to open.errcode is 2

ModuleID[2] LevelID[1]: Parse ucl script failed, error code: 4

Here I am stuck because I don't have a zImage file and I don't even know where to start looking.

Any suggestions.  It would be great if there was one totural that worked with a set of files / tools that were avaible in one place. 

Thanks for the help.

some files needs to be copied to the mfg tools to continue.

dl the file from here : https://www.sendspace.com/file/9ijhbb

file system from here.

- replace "cfg.ini" in the MFG Tool folder.

- copy u-boot-mx6solo-riot.bin & uImage & oneiric.tgz to "Profiles/MX6Q Linux Update/OS Firmware/files" folder.

- copy ucl2.xml to "Profiles/MX6Q Linux Update/OS Firmware" folder

That should help.

the blogs and documents had valid links, but now they are removed.

yocto based BSP will be available soon .

When downloading the images you don´t need to change anything except for changing the filename from ucl2.txt to ucl2.xml.

My tutorial is for flashing a self compiled mainline kernel with a bootscript and your own rootfs.

If you have no device connected, make first sure you use the usb port on the board by the ethernet port.

Also that the dip switches are set correctly. (1 and 5 Off)

If still no device, then look into the Windows Device Manager.

There should be an unknown device.

Then try to install the driver manually.

You´ll find it under Standard System devices.

It´s the HID-Conform from producer defined device.
(Or similar. Don´t know how it´s named in the english version of Windows)

some files needs to be copied to the mfg tools to continue.

Ok didn´t know that there are files missing in these packages.

my bad english ,  i meant certain setting needs to be change.

i was trying to provide a simple copy/paste solution to user.

sry for any confusion caused  .

two more MFG Tools download link:

Mfgtools_SVN2591 : contains Ubuntu File System

Mfgtools_SVN2777 : Yocto based
