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.
  
-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. +Get an suitable image for your target 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]].
-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]].+
  
 +Get the associated SDK from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/start|Linux Images]]
 +
 +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-xwayland-glibc-x86_64-ntb-ros-image-melodic-armv7at2hf-neon-cb20-toolchain-5.0.0.sh</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
 +  * downloading the SDK from [[https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/software/linux/images/start|Linux Images]]

 +<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.

-Setting the last entry 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. \\ \\+
