Installation Notes

These installation notes describe how to use this BSP to boot your board with the QNX OS.

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. For an overview of how to connect to your board, see the Connect and configure the hardware section in this chapter.
3. Create a bootable microSD. For more information about how to create a bootable microSD see the Prepare a bootable microSD section in this chapter.
4. After you create a bootable microSD, copy the prebuilt image that comes with this BSP to the microSD. For more information about preparing your microSD, see the Prepare a bootable microSD section in this chapter.
5. Insert the microSD into your board and boot your board from the microSD.

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 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.
