The software development flows for BoraX requires the use of several tools on host side. This document collects several resources available in this wiki, in order to illustrate how to install and set up these tools.
First of all, the reading of this document is strongly recommended to have an overview of the whole developing environment.
To deepen software related aspects, specific pages are available at the following links:
- This link for an overview of the build system
- This page for detailed instruction on U-Boot building
- This page for detailed instruction on Linux kernel building
- This link shows hot to use Yocto build system to build the entoire BSP, including U-Boot bootloader, Linux kernel and root file system.
About Programmable Logic (PL), please refer to this page that illustrates a simple reference design for BoraEVB and BoraXEVB.
Host setup[edit | edit source]
As stated previously, XUELK host tools are based on a Managed Virtual Machine. As indicated here, microSD card delivered along with XUELK includes basic version of MVM that is the default option.
In case you choose to use the Advanced version of the MVM instead, the project-name to be used is lynx.
Either version you choose, please follow the procedure described here to install the MVM.
It is also worth remembering that access to git repositories is required to download target source code. To enable it, please refer to this page.
 Either version of MVM is installed, it provides the tools required to build U-boot and Linux kernel. It does not include the tools required to run Yocto build system instead. |
