Procedure

  1. Download the ISO file for the Linux distribution and create a bootable USB device or DVD.
  2. Insert your USB device into the front USB port.
  3. Verify that USB device is shown as an option in Petitboot as USB: sdc:
    USB: sdc /
    		Rescue mode
    		Install
    Note: Select Rescan devices if USB device does not appear.

    If you are installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2, you must provide some additional details to the installer. Follow these steps:

    1. Record the UUID of the USB device. For example, the UUID of the USB device in the following example is 2015-10-30-11-05-03-00.
      [USB: sdb1 / 2015-10-30-11-05-03-00]
                  Rescue a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system (64-bit kernel)
                  Test this media & install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2  (64-bit kernel)
               *  Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2 (64-bit kernel)
    2. Select Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2 (64-bit kernel) and press e (Edit) to open the Petitboot Option Editor window.
    3. Move the cursor to the Boot arguments section and add the following information:
      inst.stage2=hd:UUID=your_UUID
      where your_UUID is the UUID that you recorded.

                    Device tree:
                    Boot arguments: ro inst.stage2=hd:UUID=2015-10-30-11-05-03-00    
      
                       [    OK    ]  [   Help   ]  [  Cancel  ]
    4. Select OK to save your options and return to the Main menu.
  4. Select Install.
    Note: Be patient! It can sometimes take a couple minutes for the installation to begin.
  5. Follow the installation wizard for your Linux distribution to set up disk options, your user name and password, time zones, and so on. The last step is to restart your system.
  6. After the system restarts, Petitboot displays the option to boot the Linux distribution that you installed. Select this option and press Enter.
### CP2014 USB to UART Bridge Controller Drivers and Hardware Specifications #### Driver Installation on Rockchip Devices For devices based on the Rockchip platform, installing drivers for the CP2014 USB to UART bridge controller involves ensuring compatibility with both the Linux kernel and U-Boot environment. The Rockchip Developer Guide provides detailed instructions regarding UART configuration within these environments[^1]. To install or verify driver installation: 1. Confirm that the system recognizes the CP2014 device by checking dmesg logs after connecting the adapter. 2. Ensure necessary modules such as `usbserial` are loaded using modprobe. ```bash modprobe usbserial vendor=0x04D8 product=0xF5FE ``` This command loads support specifically for Silabs-based bridges like CP2014 where appropriate IDs match those of this chip. #### Hardware Specifications Overview The CP2014 is a highly integrated single-chip solution designed primarily for converting between USB and asynchronous serial data formats. Key features include full-speed USB operation up to 12 Mbps, automatic baud rate detection from 300 bps through 921.6 kbps, low power consumption during suspend mode (< 1uA), and built-in voltage regulators providing clean supply rails required by RS-232 interface circuits when used alongside external transceivers. In terms of pinout and physical attributes, refer directly to manufacturer datasheets which outline electrical characteristics, timing diagrams, application notes specific to interfacing requirements not covered here due to brevity constraints but essential for successful integration into custom designs involving Rockchip SoCs[^2]. --related questions-- 1. How can one troubleshoot common issues encountered while setting up a CP2014 USB-to-UART converter? 2. What steps should be taken if the operating system does not recognize the CP2014 upon connection? 3. Are there any particular settings needed in the Rockchip developer guides concerning UART configurations relevant to third-party adapters? 4. Can you provide guidance on how to modify existing scripts found under `/oem/app/` directory similar to what was shown earlier but tailored towards initializing communication over a CP2014 connected port instead?
