We provide a tested software environment for the PicoCoreMX8ULP.Part of this environment is the Linux Yocto release and the BSP for the Cortex-M33.Announcements about new versions of this package are made in the support forum.
Yocto Release Y2024.09
For the CPU NXP i.MX8 ULP F&S offers a Yocto based environment. We offer the Linux BSP fsimx8ulp-Y2024.09-pre, which is based on Yocto.
Our standard configuration, which is intended to give a first impression of the functionality of the board, includes the following features: Busybox, gdb, alsa-utils, gstreamer, fbv, matchbox, feh, openssl, openssh, ncurses, can-utils, iproute2, ftpd, httpd, telnet, tftp, and many more.
The BSP is based on the following source code packages:
- U-Boot: 2024.04
- Linux-Kernel: 6.6.48
- Yocto: 5.0.3 Scarthgap
Also included is our cross toolchain, some sample applications, and all binaries in the default configuration.
F&S offer a virtual machine (based on VirtualBox) with an installed Linux based on the distribution Fedora 36 for free download. All packages necessary to compile our software are already installed. Also, all services (NFS, TFTP) for working with our boards are installed. Our BSP is unpacked and precompiled in the correct directories. With this virtual machine it doesn't matter if you use Windows or Linux as host. Simply download the VHD, import it into VirtualBox and development can begin immediately.
