==== Using the SDK ====
Anytime it is required to compile u-boot or kernel sources, it is enough to enabling it using the script:
source /home/dvdk/desk-mx-l/desk-mx8m-l-4.0.0_env.sh
==== MITO 8M Mini SDK ====
[[MITO 8M Mini SOM| MITO 8M Mini]] has the same 4-cores Cortex-A53 architecture: even if Yocto builds two SDK, it is possible to install and use the previously described/used SDK file for both SOM modules/architectures.
=== DVDK for release 2.0.0 ===
