 The following is a step-by-step procedure to get started using EEROS on the [[https://wiki.ntb.ch/infoportal/embedded_systems/imx6/cb#cb20_board|cb20 Board]]. It describes how to set up the SDK. The application is developed on a Linux host machine and can then be deployed to the board.
-===== Prerequisites =====
+===== Install Linux Image on cb20  Blue =====
-  - Get an suitable image for your cb20 platform from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/start|Linux Images]] and install it on your target system, see [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/toradex/toradex-easy-installer]].
+Make sure to have the newest image from our download section [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/start|Linux Images]] installed on your [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/embedded_systems/imx6/cb|cb20]] board, see [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/toradex/toradex-easy-installer|toradex-easy-installer]]. This image already contains the EEROS library together with examples. Further is includes necessary hardware libraries, notably [[http://flink-project.ch|flink]] as well as basic functionalities of ROS.
-  - On the host, you have to fetch the cross development SDK for the cb20 board from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/downloads|Downloads]] and install it on the host according to [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/yocto/sdk#installing_the_sdk|Installing the SDK]]. Unpack it on your host system with <code>$ tar -vxJf ntb-dev-image-cb20-1.0_sdk.tar.xz</code>
-Change into the sdk directory and execute the script therein with <code>$ cd sdk
+Get the image from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/downloads|Downloads]].
-$ ./tdx-xwayland-glibc-x86_64-ntb-ros-image-melodic-armv7at2hf-neon-cb20-toolchain-5.0.0.sh</code>
-Fetch the [[https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-build-scripts.git|EEROS scripts]] on your cross development system with
-<code>
-$ git clone https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-build-scripts.git cb20
-$ cd cb20
-</code>
-Edit the file ''config.sh.in'' as follows
-<code>
-use_simulator=false
-use_flink=true
-use_bbblue=false
-use_comedi=false
-use_ros=false
-use_can=false
-use_custom_application=true
-use_cross_compilation_environment=true
-use_ros_setup_script=false
-</code>
-The entry ''use_cross_compilation_environment'' ensures that you compile using an SDK built for the target platform. Make sure to install the SDK by
+===== Install SDK on the Host =====
-  * downloading the SDK from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/start|Linux Images]]
+In order to develop your application on the host, you have to install the cross development SDK.
-  * installing the SDK as described in [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/toradex/toradex-sdk]]
+  - Get the cross development SDK for the cb20 board from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/downloads|Downloads]].
+  - Unpack it on your host system with <code>$ tar -vxJf ntb-dev-image-cb20-1.0_sdk.tar.xz</code>
+  - Change into the sdk directory and execute the script therein with <code>$ cd sdk
+$ ./tdx-x11-glibc-x86_64-ntb-dev-image-armv7at2hf-neon-toolchain-2.6.4.sh</code>Stick with the default target directory for the SDK. If you choose a different directory you have later to manually change the associated entry in ''config.sh.in''.
-Edit the file ''config.sh.in'' as follows
-<code>
-environment_setup_script=/opt/tdx-xwayland/5.0.0/environment-setup-armv7at2hf-neon-tdx-linux-gnueabi
-</code>
-This will guide your make script to use the SDK. Make sure that the above path matches your installation path.
-If you want to use CAN, choose
+===== Install Git =====
-<code>
+Install the following package on your machine <code>
-use_can=true
+$ apt-get install git
 </code>
-Setting the entry ''use_custom_application'' to //true// will fetch an existing application from a git repository. Per default this will will be [[https://github.com/eeros-project/simple-motor-control.git]]. However, you could choose another repository in ''config.sh.in''. Or you could set the entry to //false// if you want to develop your own application. \\
+Continue with [[getting_started:write_app:use_on_cb20|]].
-Now you can run the ''clone'' script
-<code>
-$ ./clone.sh
-</code>
-After this you can continue with [[getting_started:compile_eeros|]].
-==== Test Application ====
-There is a test application for the cb20 board in [[https://github.com/ntb-ch/cb20.git]] under the directory ///Software//. If you wish to use this you can alter ''config.sh.in'' as follows
-<code>
-use_custom_application=true
-custom_application_name=cb20test
-</code>
-and further down
-<code>
-custom_application_git_remote_address=https://github.com/ntb-ch/cb20.git
-custom_application_git_version=master
-custom_application_source_dir="$wd/$custom_application_name/Software/$custom_application_name"
-custom_application_build_dir="$build_dir/$custom_application_name"
-</code>
-Now you can run the ''clone'' script
-<code>
-$ ./clone.sh
-</code>
-After this you can continue with [[getting_started:compile_eeros|]].
