#Building kernel All instructions can be found here. http://wiki.lemaker.org/BananaPro/Pi:Building_u-boot,_script.bin_and_linux-kernel I recommend to use BSP way. After done extract output. Copy everything from /boot and /kernel to some folder (for example, /boot) Create a file called uEnv.txt in the same folder. Fill this file with the folowwing lines: *bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 disp.screen0_output_mode=EDID:1280x720p50 hdmi.audio=EDID:0 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline rootwait* *aload_script=fatload mmc 0 0x43000000 script.bin;* *aload_kernel=fatload mmc 0 0x48000000 uImage; bootm 0x48000000;* *uenvcmd=run aload_script aload_kernel* #Building rootfs Download bananapi-buildroot and cd to this folder. Run command *make nconfig*. In buildroot menu do the folowing steps: 1) Configure system type (ARM, CORTEX-A7) 2) Select latest sourcery toolchain (external toolchain) 3) Add libcedarx package (Hardware Handling) 4) Add sunxi-cedarx package (Hardware Handling) 5) Add sunxi-ffmpeg package (Audio, Video) 6) Add sunxi-vlc package (Audio, Video) 7) In System Configuration set path for user tables (board/promwad/bananapi/users) Login: pavel Password: pi 8) In System Configuration set path for system overlay (board/promwad/bananapi/rootfs_overlay) This will add init scripts for system and sunxi kernel module. Now exit with *f9* and run *make*. Process may take up to 15 minutes. If you see "THIS IS NOT YOUR ROOT FILESYSTEM" everything is ok. Now go to bananapi-buildroot/output/target. Extract .tar archive to convinient folder. #Preparing SD card Install gparted. Now open it, delete all the partitions on your SD card. Create a new partition (fat16, 20 MB) with label *boot* and add boot flag. Create a new partition (ext4, >300 MB) with label *root*. Copy everything from your *boot* folder to *boot* partition. Copy everything from your *rootfs* folder to *root* partition. In your terminal enter command *sync*. Unmount partitions and eject SD card. #Check vlc Insert your SD card to Banana Pi and turn it on. Login: pavel Password: pi Cd to /home/pavel. Run vlc: *cvlc --demux ffmpeg --codec cedar --vout cedarfb --no-osd --no-audio philips_air_show.ts*
