uClinux Package Description

This package provides a basic port of uClinux distribution to STM3210E-EVAL board, The example runs only on STM32F10x High-Density Devices. It has been tested with STM3210E-EVAL board “Rev B” and “Rev D”.

  • kernel boot loader/kernel_boot_loader.hex : board boot up binary file used with STM3210E-EVAL-jffs config.
  • kernel boot loader/Tiny_Kernel_Boot_Loader.hex : board boot up binary file used with STM3210E-EVAL-MCU_Flash config, to run kernel from STM32 MCU internal Flash memory.

 

  • kernel Patch/uClinux_on_stm32.patch.gz : uClinux distribution patch.
  • kernel Patch/Readme.txt : Quick How to build uClinux from the sources.

Quick Start

Provided binary files can immediately be loaded to the bored to get uClinux running.

  • Use STMicroelectronics “Flash Loader Demonstrator” to load the .hex files to the board.
  • Use STMicroelectronics “DfuSe” applet to load .dfu files to the board.

 

Binary .hex/.dfu files goes in pair:

  • “kernel_boot_loader.hex” / “uClinux_on_stm32-jffs.dfu”.
  • “Tiny_Kernel_Boot_Loader.hex” / “uClinux_on_stm32-MCU_Flash.dfu”
