Requirement
- ROCK Pi S
- USB Type C to USB-A cable
Step 1: Connecting your ROCK Pi S on PC
Using USB Type C to USB-A cable connect your ROCK Pi S and PC.
Step 2: Make sure rkdeveloptool is set up on host computer Linux
Linux
To build rkdeveloptool on a debian based Linux distribution, follow the instruction below:
Install build dependency:
sudo apt-get install libudev-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev dh-autoreconf
Clone the source code and build:
git clone https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkdeveloptool cd rkdeveloptool autoreconf -i ./configure make
If you encounter compile error like below
./configure: line 4269: syntax error near unexpected token `LIBUSB1,libusb-1.0' ./configure: line 4269: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LIBUSB1,libusb-1.0)'
You should install pkg-config libusb-1.0
sudo apt-get install pkg-config libusb-1.0
Then re-run
autoreconf -i ./configure make
Now you have rkdeveloptool executable at the current directory.
sudo cp rkdeveloptool /usr/local/bin/
MacOS
To build rkdeveloptool on macOS, you need homebrew(or similar package manager) to install required packages.
Install build dependency:
brew install automake autoconf libusb
Clone the source code and build:
git clone https://github.com/rockchip-linux/rkdeveloptool cd rkdeveloptool autoreconf -i ./configure make
If you encounter compile error like below
./configure: line 4269: syntax error near unexpected token `LIBUSB1,libusb-1.0' ./configure: line 4269: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(LIBUSB1,libusb-1.0)'
You should install pkg-config libusb-1.0
brew install pkg-config
Then re-run
autoreconf -i ./configure make
Now you have rkdeveloptool executable at the current directory.
sudo cp rkdeveloptool /usr/local/bin/
Step 3: Testing connected and get help
On linux host:
$ rkdeveloptool ld
If you can see the information for device your connection is successful, if you want to get help you can type:
$ rkdeveloptool ?
