On your host machine, start your favorite terminal program with these settings:
Then, apply power to the target. You should see output similar to the following: ++NAND: RCSR=64000150 Searching for BBT table in the flash ... .

RedBoot> # Step 3: Setup the environment At the RedBoot prompt, issue the fconfig command to change the current environment. The current configurations will be displayed; change the configuration if you want.

RedBoot will display the follow message and start downloading the boot image: Using default protocol (TFTP) If the image is successfully loaded RedBoot will display: Raw file loaded 0x00100000-0x002aae8b, assumed entry at 0x00100000 Type run to jump to startup and boot the IFS image. You should see QNX Neutrino boot, followed by the welcome message on your terminal screen: load entry_address=0x100000 virt_addr=0x100000 phys_addr=0x80100000 CPU0: Dcache: 512x32 WB CPU0: Icache: 512x32 CPU0: 41069264: arm926 rev 4 396MHz System page at phys:80010000 user:fc404000 kern:fc404000 Starting next program at vfe03c830 cpu_startnext: cpu0 -> fe03c830 Welcome to QNX Neutrino 6.4.0 on the Freescale MX25 3DS Board (ARM 926 core) # You can test the OS simply by executing any shell builtin command or any command residing within the OS image (e.g. ls). Step 5: Replace the ~Redboot bootloader with a native QNX IPL and OS image in flash At some point, you may wish to replace the ~Redboot bootloader with the native QNX IPL code. This may be desirable once you've tweaked the OS image exactly the way you want it, and you want the board to boot the image automatically, immediately on power up. To replace the ~Redboot bootloader: 1. Modify your buildfile to generate a binary image. The mkflashimage.sh script will convert the IPL image to binary and prefix it with a 16k pad. Here is the mkflashimage.sh script:
#!/bin/sh
# Script to build a binary IPL for the i.MX25 3DS Board that can be programmed
# into NAND flash at the beginning of block 0
#
# Example usage: ./mkflashimage.sh arm/le/ipl-3dsmx25
if [ "$1" == "" ]; then
filename="../install/armle/boot/sys/ipl-3dsmx25"
else
filename=$1
fi
echo "Converting $filename"
# Convert the IPL into binary format
${QNX_HOST}/usr/bin/ntoarm-objcopy --input-format=elf32-littlearm --output-format=binary $filename ./tmp-ipl.bin
# Pad the result to 16K (this will ensure the assumptions within the IPL are correct)
mkrec -s16k -ffull -r tmp-ipl.bin > image.rom
# Clean up after ourselves
rm -f tmp-*
echo "You can now program image.rom to NAND block 0"
3. Burn image.rom to the board's NAND using the Advanced Toolkit. The Advanced Toolkit can be found on Freescale's i.MX25 Product Development Kit download page Set the Personality Board switches to the following settings:
Set the Debug Board to the following settings:
Install the tool on a Windows host and connect it to the i.MX25 via the USB OTG connector on the Personality Board. Power up the board and install the Windows drivers as specified in the Advanced Toolkit installation notes. Launch Advanced Toolkit and select the following options: i.MX CPU: i.MX25_TO1.1 Click Next, then click Flash Tool. You can now program the image.rom file to NAND block 0. You should also program it to NAND block 1 when done development as it will be used by the boot ROM as the backup boot block. To boot from NAND, first power off the board, disconnect the USB cable from the OTG port and set the Personality Board switches to the following settings:
Set the Debug Board to the following settings:
Powering on will now boot the IPL.
Driver Command Summary#The following table summarizes the commands to launch the various drivers.
Some of the drivers are commented out in the default buildfile. To use the drivers in the target hardware, you'll need to uncomment them in your buildfile, rebuild the image, and load the image into the board. Startup, USB, and Graphics have additional details: Startup#startup-3dsmx25 [startup-options] Some modules aren't enabled after boot up, so you need to use command line options to startup to enable them. These options must be passed before any other startup options.
CAN #dev-can-mx35 can1 Note: there is only one CAN interface on the i.mx25 PDK/ADS board. About Graphics#The graphics driver provides support for the Liquid Crystal Display Controller (LCDC). The default LCD is the Chunghwa Picture Tubes CLAA057VA01CW TFT LCD that comes with the MX25 3DS reference board. Other LCDs may be supported through the driver configuration file - imx25.conf.The LCDC has a requirement that a displayable surface not cross a 4MB memory boundary. To prevent this it is recommended that memory be reserved for graphics on a 4MB from start-up (using -r option) and then this memory area provided to the driver using the vbase and vsize options in imx25.conf. (see imx25.conf for details on these options)
