Installation Notes

Overview

Here's the process to install and use this BSP:

1. Download the BSP, set up your environment, and extract the BSP. For more information, see Download and set up the BSP in this chapter.
2. Connect your target board (refer to the hardware documentation).
3. Build the BSP to create the QNX IFS and QNX IPL files. For more information, see Build the BSP in this chapter.
4. Prepare the microSD card and install QNX OS. For more information, see Prepare microSD to install QNX IFS in this chapter.
5. boot QNX IFS image:
   • You can manually configure the board to boot QNX OS. For more information about booting the board, see Install QNX IFS in this chapter. After this step, your board will be running QNX OS.

After your board boots, you can use the image to understand how it works. Depending on the other devices that you've connected to the board, you may need to modify configuration settings on the image.

At some point, you may want to customize the image to suite your specific requirements. To do this, you must modify the buildfile and rebuild the image. For specific information about building the image for this board, see the Build the BSP chapter in this guide. For generic information about modifying and building an image, see the Building Embedded Systems guide in the QNX SDP 8.0 documentation.
