Broadcom BCM283x
================
Raspberry Pi
------------
1. Prepare an SD or microSD card with a FAT filesystem of at least 30 MB in size.
2. Download the `Raspberry Pi firmware`_ (120 MB), unzip it, and copy the
contents of the ``boot/`` folder to your card.
3. Use ``make rpi_defconfig; make`` to build barebox. This will create the following images:
- ``images/barebox-raspberry-pi-1.img`` for the BCM2835/ARM1176JZF-S (Raspberry Pi 1)
- ``images/barebox-raspberry-pi-2.img`` for the BCM2836/CORTEX-A7 (Raspberry Pi 2)
- ``images/barebox-raspberry-pi-3.img`` for the BCM2837/CORTEX-A53 (Raspberry Pi 3, Raspberry Pi Zero)
Copy the respective image for your model to your SD card and name it
``barebox.img``.
4. Create a text file ``config.txt`` on the SD card with the following content::
kernel=barebox.img
enable_uart=1
(For more information, refer to the `documentation for config.txt`_.)
5. Connect to board's UART (115200 8N1);
Use PIN6 (GND), PIN8 (UART_TX), PIN10 (UART_RX) pins.
6. Turn board's power on.
VideoCore firmware creates a device tree based on the entries in ``config.txt``. This file is available to the Barebox environment in the file ``/vc.dtb``. For example, to boot a kernel shipped with Raspbian::
bootm -o /vc.dtb /boot/kernel7.img
