Installation Notes

1. Download the BSP, set up your environment, and extract the BSP. For more information, see the Download and set up the BSP section in this chapter.
2. Connect your target board. After you connect the hardware, it may be necessary to set DIP switches on your board. For an overview of how to connect to your board, see the Connect the hardware section in this chapter.
3. Create a bootable microSD card. For more information about how to create a bootable microSD card see the Prepare a bootable microSD section in this chapter.
4. After you create a bootable microSD card, you copy U-Boot (downloaded from the Texas Instruments website) to the microSD card. If you want to boot from the microSD card, you must copy the prebuilt image that comes with this BSP to the microSD card. For more information about preparing your microSD card, see the Prepare a bootable microSD section in this chapter.
5. Insert the microSD card into your board and boot your board from the microSD card.
6. (Optional) To boot from OSPI see the PSDK QNX Boot Modes section in the Texas Instruments PSDK QNX User Guide.

After your board boots, you can use that 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 buildfile and rebuild the image. For specific information about building the image for this board, see theBuild 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.
