VAR-SOM-MX6 - First Time? Start Here.

Step One: Read Documentations

Please download and read the development kit documentation.

NOTE:
Make sure you read the Quick Start Guide.

Step Two: Development Environment

Set up your development environment.

Setting Development Environment

Step Three: Power Up

Power up the board.
You should have the serial cable connected.
You should also see the u-boot output on the serial.

IMPORTANT:
Don't continue without the serial console operating.

Step Four: NAND recovery SDCARD

Create Yocto bootable SDCARD and flash it to your card.

Create NAND recovery
Recover Nand Flash
- Insert the SD card into the SD/MMC slot of the custom board
- Press and hold the boot-select button (or switch to MMC), power-off and power-on the board
- The board will automatically boot into Linux from SD-Card
- Flash from command line
Switch to NAND (or don't push the boot-select button) and power up your board.

Step Five: What next?

Your next step can be one of :

Start doing applications programming.
