 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 cross development tool chain. The application is developed on a Linux host machine and can then be deployed to the board.
-As cross tool chain, the **arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-4.9** is needed. It is recommended to use a Ubuntu 16.04 as host operating system, since this packet is available in the default repositories.
+On the host, you have to install the cross development SDK, see [[https://wiki.ntb.ch/infoportal/software/linux/toradex/start|Linux on Toradex Colibri i.MX6]]. Also make sure to have the newest image from our download section [[https://wiki.ntb.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/start|Linux Images]] installed on the target.
-If a Linux host is used in a virtual machine, a [[https://lubuntu.net/downloads/|lightweight Ubuntu distribution]] is recommended. In case you are using a newer Ubuntu version, you have to add //xenial// to your sources list, see [[https://askubuntu.com/questions/1036108/install-gcc-4-9-at-ubuntu-18-04]].
 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
+$ git clone https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-build-scripts.git cb20
-$ cd eeros-project
+$ cd cb20
 </code>
 Edit the file ''config.sh.in'' as follows

+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
+  * downloading the SDK from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/start|Linux Images]]
+  * installing the SDK as described in [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/toradex/toradex-sdk]]

+<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
+<code>
+use_can=true
+</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. \\
 Now you can run the ''clone'' script
