1This README file contains information on building the meta-mohonpeak
2BSP layer, and booting the images contained in the /binary directory.
3Please see the corresponding sections below for details.

5The mohonpeak platform consists of two versions:
61. 32-bit Mohon Peak
72. 64-bit Mohon Peak
8
9The Mohon Peak platform consists of the Intel Atom Processor C2000
10Product Family (Formerly Rangeley)
11
12This BSP assumes ASPEED Technology graphics card is being used.

68I. Building the meta-mohonpeak BSP layer
69=======================================
70
71In order to build an image with BSP support for a given release, you
72need to download the corresponding BSP tarball from the 'Board Support
73Package (BSP) Downloads' page of the Yocto Project website.
74
75Having done that, and assuming you extracted the BSP tarball contents
76at the top-level of your yocto build tree, you can build a mohonpeak
77image by adding the location of the meta-mohonpeak layer to
78bblayers.conf, along with the meta-intel layer itself (to access
79common metadata shared between BSPs) e.g.:
80
81 yocto/meta-intel \
82 yocto/meta-intel/meta-isg \
83 yocto/meta-intel/meta-isg/meta-mohonpeak \
84
85To enable the 32-bit Mohon Peak layer, add the mohonpeak-32 MACHINE to local.conf:
86
87 MACHINE ?= "mohonpeak-32"
88
89To enable the 64-bit Mohon Peak layer, add the mohonpeak-64 MACHINE to local.conf:
90
91 MACHINE ?= "mohonpeak-64"
92
93You should then be able to build a mohonpeak image as such:
94
95 $ source oe-init-build-env
96 $ bitbake core-image-sato
97
98At the end of a successful build, you should have a live image that
99you can boot from a USB flash drive (see instructions on how to do
100that below, in the section 'Booting the images from /binary').
101
102As an alternative to downloading the BSP tarball, you can also work
103directly from the meta-intel git repository. For each BSP in the
104'meta-intel' repository, there are multiple branches, one
105corresponding to each major release starting with 'laverne' (0.90), in
106addition to the latest code which tracks the current master (note that
107not all BSPs are present in every release). Instead of extracting a
108BSP tarball at the top level of your yocto build tree, you can
109equivalently check out the appropriate branch from the meta-intel
110repository at the same location.
111
112
113II. Booting the images in /binary
114=================================
115
116This BSP contains bootable live images, which can be used to directly
117boot Yocto off of a USB flash drive.
118
119Under Linux, insert a USB flash drive. Assuming the USB flash drive
120takes device /dev/sdf, use dd to copy the live image to it. For
121example:
122
123# dd if=core-image-sato-mohonpeak-64.hddimg of=/dev/sdf
124# sync
125# eject /dev/sdf
126
127This should give you a bootable USB flash device. Insert the device
128into a bootable USB socket on the target, and power on. This should
129result in a system booted to the Sato graphical desktop.
130
131If you want a terminal, use the arrows at the top of the UI to move to
132different pages of available applications, one of which is named
133'Terminal'. Clicking that should give you a root terminal.
134
135If you want to ssh into the system, you can use the root terminal to
136ifconfig the IP address and use that to ssh in. The root password is
137empty, so to log in type 'root' for the user name and hit 'Enter' at
138the Password prompt: and you should be in.
139
140----
141
142If you find you're getting corrupt images on the USB (it doesn't show
143the syslinux boot: prompt, or the boot: prompt contains strange
144characters), try doing this first:
145
146# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdf bs=1M count=512
