== Using Balena Etcher and WIF image file ==<section end="History" /><section begin="Body" />The process is relatively straightforward: it consists of writing the WIC file of interest generated by Yocto onto the SD card. The most common tool to do that is to use the well-known BalenaEtcher tool ([https://etcher.balena.io/ download BalenaEtcherBalena Etcher program]). The following instruction explains how to use it on a Windows host. The procedure is similar when working with a Linux host.
* Download the desired binary image to flash (<code>*.wic</code> or <code>*.wic.bz2</code>)
**Among the binaries made available in the [[mirror:desk-mp1-l/| mirror]] there are several <code>*.wic.bz2</code> files for the available releases. In particular, there is the <code>desk-image-qt5-openstlinux-weston-desk-mp1.wic.bz2</code> file. This image is the one used to program the microSD card delivered along with the evaluation kit.

== Using STM32CubeProgrammer ==
Another way is to use the [https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stm32cubeprog.html STM32CubeProgrammer] tool, which has a little different approach than BalenaEtcher. STM32CubeProgrammer makes use of several files generated by Yocto.
