.Ss2 Installation for Armv7 and AArch64 devices with U-Boot
|
|
.Bl -bullet -offset indent -compact
|
|
.It
|
|
Download or build armv7.img.gz (32-bit) or arm64.img.gz (64-bit).
|
|
.It
|
|
Decompress the .gz image, using
|
|
.Xr gunzip 1
|
|
on Unix.
|
|
.It
|
|
Write the image to disk:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
# dd if=armv7.img of=/dev/rld0d bs=1m conv=sync
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It
|
|
If you are using Microsoft Windows, you can use
|
|
.Lk https://www.netbsd.org/~martin/rawrite32/ "rawrite32"
|
|
to write SD card images, which can handle decompression too.
|
|
.It
|
|
To replace the vendor U-Boot bootloader with a "mainline" U-Boot,
|
|
obtain a board-specific image.
|
|
Bootloaders are provided by the
|
|
.Pa sysutils/u-boot-*
|
|
packages in
|
|
.Lk https://www.pkgsrc.org/ "pkgsrc" .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If you're using pkgsrc on an UNIX-like operating system that isn't NetBSD,
|
|
you must bootstrap first (see the
|
|
.Pa README
|
|
file in the root directory of pkgsrc).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
You can also extract the U-Boot image from u-boot-*.tgz archive in an
|
|
existing
|
|
.Lk https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/aarch64/9.0/All/ "NetBSD binary package set".
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Install the board-specific U-Boot to the SD card,
|
|
e.g. for Allwinner devices (PINE H64 in this case):
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
# dd if=/usr/pkg/share/u-boot/pine-h64/u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/rld0d bs=1k seek=8 conv=sync
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Or a Rockchip device (e.g. RockPro64):
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
# dd if=/usr/pkg/share/u-boot/rockpro64/rksd_loader.img of=/dev/rld0d seek=64 conv=sync
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If you do not want to prepare a SD card image manually, NetBSD developer
|
|
Jared McNeill provides pre-prepared images on his website
|
|
.Lk http://www.armbsd.org/arm/ "armbsd.org" .
|
|
.Ss2 Installing NetBSD/evbarm to a SATA hard disk
|
|
Some Arm boards offer a SATA interface, and you might want to install NetBSD
|
|
to a hard disk after you've got it running from an SD card.
|
|
You can do this using
|
|
.Xr sysinst 8
|
|
from within NetBSD.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
There are instructions for using
|
|
.Lk https://wiki.netbsd.org/ports/evbarm/install_using_sysinst/ "sysinst on Arm"
|
|
on the NetBSD wiki.
|
|
The main difference from installing on other ports is that a FAT32
|
|
partition is required for /boot.
