== Running the image on DHCOM i.MX6 ==
As this is just a console image, you will need a serial terminal program such as minicom in order to interact with the board and run commands.  Simply plug the microSD card into the slot on the DHCOM i.MX6 module and apply power.  You should immediately see log messages in the serial terminal.  When complete, you should get a login prompt:
Poky (Yocto Project Reference Distro) 2.1.2 dhcom3bimx6dl /dev/ttymxc0<br/>
dhcom3bimx6dl login:
The default login username is 'root' and there is no password.

For general information about the Yocto Project please refer to the official Website. "Yocto is not an embedded Linux distribution – it creates a custom one for you." This says that if you are using Yocto to build your system image you are the distributor. If you're not aware of what this means for you please contact us.

Requirements hardware and software

  • Linux-based (Debian/Ubuntu is recommended) host system to use for building Linux/Yocto
  • min 4GB RAM / > 8GB RAM are recommended
  • disk space (depending on image to build about 80 GB)
  • a microSD card-reader to write the generated image to the microSD card

Supported Stable Branch

With our OpenEmbedded / Yocto BSP Layer for DHCOM i.MX6 we support the following branches:

Name Version
Dizzy 1.7
Krogoth 2.1
Thud (i.MX6ull only) 2.6

Our BSP layer is based on the Freescale Community BSP.
