-====== Use on a Beaglebone Blue Board ====== 
-The following is a step-by-step procedure to get started using EEROS on the [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/embedded_systems/ti_sitara_am335x/beaglebone_blue/start|BeagleBone Blue]] board. It describes how to set up the cross development tool chain. The application is developed on a Linux host machine and can then be deployed to the board. 
- 
-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 eeros-project 
-$ cd eeros-project 
-</code> 
-Edit the file ''config.sh.in'' as follows 
-<code> 
-use_simulator=false 
-use_flink=false 
-use_bbblue=true 
-use_comedi=false 
-use_ros=false 
-use_can=false 
-use_custom_application=true 
-use_cross_compilation_environment=true 
-use_ros_setup_script=false 
-</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. 
- 
-The entry ''use_cross_compilation_environment'' ensures that you compile using an SDK built for the target platform. This SDK already contains the [[http://beagleboard.org/librobotcontrol/index.html|librobotcontrol]]. Make sure to install the SDK by 
-  * downloading the SDK from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/start]]  
-  * installing the SDK as described in [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/bbblue-sdk]] 
- 
-Now you can run the ''clone'' script  
-<code> 
-$ ./clone.sh 
-</code> 
- 
-The library for the roboticscape must be compiled manually. Though the library is already on the target, we must also have it on the host, in order to be able to link an application.  
-At the time of writing, the Beaglebone blue boards are shipped with an image that has the robotics cape library version 0.3.4 installed. Therefore, it is highly recommended to use this version. The bbblue-eeros wrapper library was implemented to work with the robotics cape library v0.3.4. Newer version were not tested yet. The right version is checked out by the clone script. \\ 
-Now, the cross tool chain is installed on the host machine with the following command. 
-<code> 
-$ sudo apt-get install g++-4.9-arm-linux-gnueabihf 
-</code> 
- 
- 
- 
- 
-After this you can continue with [[getting_started:compile_eeros|]].
