How to Generate a Tiny File System

Follow the instructions below to create a tiny file system. A default tisdk-tiny-image-j7-evm.tar.xz is also packaged with the SDK.

Note: Take the config file from the latest SDK installer. The below mentioned commands serve as a reference example. Also change the MACHINE based on the SoC being used.
git clone git://arago-project.org/git/projects/oe-layersetup.git tisdk
cd tisdk/
 
# Copy config file from the 7.00 installer yocto-build/configs/psdkla/psdkla-07_00_00.txt
./oe-layertool-setup.sh -f psdkla-07_00_00.txt
 
# export proxy
export ftp_proxy=http://webproxy.ext.ti.com:80
export http_proxy=http://webproxy.ext.ti.com:80
export https_proxy=http://webproxy.ext.ti.com:80
 
cd build
# Edit config file if you want to reuse downloads folder
vi conf/local.conf
. conf/setenv
