Connect the board with the computer.
After receiving the board from manufacturer, it has already Linux OS on target board. However, we should know how to install it for the case the OS is ruin. I used laptop that installed WindowXP to connect with the mini2440 board.Step1: Connect comport from mini2440 board to laptop.
Because the laptop does not have comport, we use com-usb adapter. So we should install driver for com-usb adpter. My adapter has a form like this, and its driver is here http://www.mediafire.com/?1r4461tbig0445r
After installed driver and pluged it into laptop, it should show the information about com-usb adapter in Device Manager as in above picture.
Step2: connect usb port from mini2440 to computer (using a white usb cord).
Step3: connect power and switch S2 into NOR side. Switch power on.
Install the tool on WindowXP
After switched power on, the WindowXP will ask for driver usb, go to the directory of CD (that is shipped with the board) Windows_platform_tool\usb_download_driver, click on FriendlyARM USB Download Driver Setup_20090421.exe to install driver for usb connection.Go to Windows_platform_tool\dnw (on CD), click on dnw.exe, the dnw tool will open. If the usb connection is right, it should show [USB:OK] as in follow picture.
Next, click on Start> Programs> Accessories> Communications> Hyper Terminal, then follow this:
Note that, COM1 is used because the usb-com adapter is on COM1 (it could be checked on Device Manager)
After those steps, now you press reset button on mini2440 board, it should show the menu like this on super terminal
If you have done, you should save this hyper terminal for next time using.
Okay, everything is ready for installing Linux into mini2440.
