- Intro
- =====
- This is a board configuration for the apu2 platform by PC Engines.
- https://pcengines.ch/apu2.htm
- Since the apu2 does not have any graphical output, the default configuration
- will ensure that the kernel output as well as the login prompt will be sent to
- the serial port.
- How to build
- ============
- The provided defconfig creates a hybrid isolinux image that can be booted from
- either an USB stick or a CD.
- $ make pcengines_apu2_defconfig
- $ make
- How to write to an USB stick
- ============================
- Once the build process is finished you will have an image
- called "rootfs.iso9660" in the output/images/ directory.
- Copy the bootable "rootfs.iso9660" onto the USB stick with "dd":
- $ sudo dd if=output/images/rootfs.iso9660 of=/dev/sdX bs=1M conv=fsync
- $ sudo sync
- How to connect to the apu2
- ==========================
- Connect to the DB9 serial port of the apu2 board (either directly or through a
- USB adapter) with a baudrate of 115200.
- For example with miniterm (part of pyserial):
- $ miniterm.py -f direct /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
