Transfer the image

After you format and make your SD card bootable, you're ready to transfer the image to it.

The IPL has its reset vector offset by 0x8000 bytes, so when you copy your IPL to the SD card, you must copy it to this offset. Linux hosts allow you to copy the image to a specific offset using the dd command in a terminal. On a Windows host, you must get the CFImager tool.

Provided with your BSP are prebuilt files that you can use. Alternatively, if you make modifications to the buildfile, you can rebuild the QNX IFS and QNX IPL files. For information about building your BSP, see the Build the BSP section in this chapter.
