Was the bug in the kernel or your application? Jonathan Cormier

One other note..
If you are using a newer filesystem with systemd (does /etc/systemd exist) things are a bit different. The link in step 4 talks about it a bit.

1 - No you don't need to log in as root... the init system will run your script for you. One thing that may catch you (it got me) is that HOME will not be defined when your script is run by init.
2 - Copy a simple script in /e...

I am at the final stage in getting my project working on the MityDSP L138 board. I want to load the FPGA control module and the DSPLink module and then start my application, which is designed to run until the sun goes nova or the batter... Steven Hill

What baseboard file are you using?
The devkit one configures MCASP for use by the ARM/linux. Could be a resource contention?
The board-da850-evm.c code is reserving EDMA channels such that the linux OS doesn't try to use them. ...

Hej,
I try to use the EDMA to copy data from the McASP to and from a buffer for further processing on the DSP.
If I don't use the EDMA but McASP interrupts to copy the data it works fine, but when I try to use the EDMA it does not ...
