This application note explains how to build a bootable Linux image (rootfs.uImage). A bootable Linux image can be booted to the target via TFTP (refer to TBD Loading Linux images via Ethernet and TFTP application note).

Linux images are built on the cross-development host. Make sure that you activate the cross development environment as described in Installing and Activating Cross Development Environment .

...

1. Activate the cross development environment:

   Code Block
   -bash-3.2$$ . ./ACTIVATE.sh

2. Change to the project directory, for instance:

   Code Block
   -bash-3.2$$ cd projects/rootfs

3. Run make:

   Code Block
   -bash-3.2$$ make

The make will create the project rootfs.uImage ready for load to the target.
