Auto-start script
Added by Anonymous almost 10 years ago
Hi,
I'm trying to have both my FPGA loaded and a software script running on initializing the system.
Any suggestions?
I know the FPGA can be loaded via uboot, but what about the script. Also, if FPGA is loaded via uboot, will be that be loaded before the script (the FPGA has to be loaded first before the execution of my software).
Thanks,
Jack

Hi Jack,
Is your software designed to be executed in linux?
If so then you will need to have linux execute it on startup and not uBoot. Here is a brief description of what needs to be done: https://support.criticallink.com/redmine/projects/arm9-platforms/wiki/ARM_Software_FAQs#How-do-I-make-my-application-run-automatically-at-startup-INITd. This method is fairly generic to linux and not just a solution for the MitySOM.
If you have uBoot load the FPGA and linux start the application then the FPGA will be loaded before the application is started.
