1. Board Description
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The mvBL-M7 is a 120x120mm single board computing platform
|
|
|
|
|
with strong focus on stereo image processing applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Power Supply is either VDC 12-48V or Pover over Ethernet (PoE)
|
|
|
|
|
on any port (requires add-on board).

|
|
|
|
|
reset vector is 0xFFF00100, i.e. "HIGHBOOT".

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
4 Booting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On startup the bootscript @ FF804000 is executed. This script can be
|
|
|
|
|
exchanged easily. Default boot mode is "boot from flash", i.e. system
|
|
|
|
|
works stand-alone.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This behaviour depends on some environment variables :
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"netboot" : yes ->try dhcp/bootp and boot from network.
|
|
|
|
|
A "dhcp_client_id" and "dhcp_vendor-class-identifier" can be used for
|
|
|
|
|
DHCP server configuration, e.g. to provide different images to
|
|
|
|
|
different devices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
During netboot the system tries to get 3 image files:
|
|
|
|
|
1. Kernel - name + data is given during BOOTP.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Initrd - name is stored in "initrd_name"
|
|
|
|
|
3. device tree blob - name is stored in "dtb_name"
|
|
|
|
|
Fallback files are the flash versions.
