'''Note:''' Starting from this '''DESK-MX6-L 1.0.0''' release the support for the SPL has been introduced in UbootU-Boot. Previous versions of this script will no longer produce a fully functional and bootable microSD card. <br>

The procedure has been tested on a Linux PC running Ubuntu LTS 16MVM released with '''DESK-MX6-L 4.0.04 distribution 0''' release with *a 16 32 GB microSD card [1]*a USB SD card reader*the binary files delivered along with the [[DESK-MX6-L/General/Release_Notes#Downloadable_binary_images|DESKMX6DESK-MX6-L 14.0.0]].

Here is an example that shows how to use this script. Let's assume that the binary We use here files were downloaded in the <code>desk<delivered with [[DESK-MX6-L/code> subdirectory of the working directoryGeneral/Release_Notes#Downloadable_binary_images|DESK-MX6-L 4.0.0]] release. Before invoking the script, the following files has to be renamed in order to make them compatible with the default U-Boot environment variables:

* splash image: <code>splash_image.bmp</code>* Linux kernel: <code>uImagedesk-mx6-l-4.0.0_uImage</code>* Device tree blob: <code>desk-mx6-l-14.0.0_imx6dl-sbcx-cb0012.dtb</code>. In the case of you don't have some file on MVM, please download it from [https://mirror.dave.eu/desk-mx-l/ mirror.dave.eu].

This is the list of the We will copy them into <code>~/desk-mx-l/desk</code> directory. Needed binary files that will can be used by found on <code>MVM</code> in the scriptfollowing location:
