<br>
NextFor example, we will use assuming the application SD-card device takes '/dev/sdf' and you have an IGEPv2 board ('igep0020'), type<br> <pre>./igep-media-create --mmc /dev/sdf --machine igep0020 --image demo-image-sato-igep00x0.tar.bz2</pre> For example, assuming the SD-card device takes ' to untar /dev/sdb' and you have an IGEP COM&nbsp;MODULE (uncompress'igep0030') the downloaded file, type<br> <pre>./igep-media-create --mmc /dev/sdb --machine igep0030 --image demo-image-sato-igep00x0.tar.bz2</pre> These methods should give you a bootable SD-card. <br>
Open a Terminal session and go to the directory where you have your downloaded file. Then type: <br>
tar xzf poky-firmware-3.3.1-11.tar.gz'''Booting IGEP device and login/connect methods'''
Next, you can enter Insert the extracted directory: bootable SD-card media into the micro-SD card socket of IGEP device and power on it. This should result in a running system with Sato graphical desktop root filesystem built by Yocto.
cd poky-firmware-3.3.1-1If you want login in/connect to the system, you have several options: <br>
*'''Serial debug link''', you should just plug serial cable to your computer<br> *'''Ethernet''', you should assign an IP in the range 192.168.5.[2-254] and connect to target using a SSH client and connecting to 192.168.5.1&nbsp;<br> *'''Create Wifi''', connect to IGEP_xx network, a MicroSD Carddynamic IP should be assigned in your host and you can sign into the target connecting to 192.168.6.1 <br> *'''USB ethernet gadget'' ', connect a IGEP device to USB port of your computer, dynamic IP should be assigned in your host and you can sign into the target connecting to 192.168.7.1 o (if available) Graphical interface on plugged DVI/TFT display and USB Keyboard in IGEP device
Now, lets create the MicroSD card with the latest firmware. Before itThe root password is empty, you have so to know log in type ''''root''which 'device' is for the MicroSD listed in user name and hit 'Enter' at the /dev/ directoryPassword prompt: (''empty password'', a directory where the detected devices are listed by the Linux system) and you should be in. <br>
To '''know the device name'''Then, follow this instructions: you could play and fun with IGEP&nbsp;board.
'''Insert your MicroSD card''' For example, you could flash the latest software image into the Linux host machine internal FLASH memory ([http://labs.isee.biz/index.php/How_to_flash_the_latest_software_image How to flash the machine where you have downloaded the firmwarelatest software image] ).
In your Terminal session, run the following '''system command''':   dmesg This instruction will prompt all the '''system traces'''. If your MicroSD card has actually been detected by the system, '''the last lines of that prompt''' will correspond to the MicroSD card detection and mounting.  Check the '''MicroSD name and path''', for example: /dev/sdb and remember it.  Now you can '''run the following script''' in the directory you have just extracted, and you will have to add some parameters. In your Terminal session, type: <br>
<br>
.{{Message/poky-media-create --mmc [device] --binary poky-image-sato-igep00x0-[timestamp].tar.gz --machine [machine] where:  *'''[device]''' is the SD card device name, for example: /dev/sdb *'''[timestamp]''' the parameter --binary is actually the name of another .tar.gz compressed file that you have already extracted in the previous steps. If you want to auto-complete the [timestamp] parameter, press TAB in the ''timestamp'' when writing the instruction and the system will write the name of the file automatically. *'''[machine]''' is the machine name, options are: **igep0020 , for IGEPv2 **igep0030 , for IGEP COM MODULE **igep0032 , for IGEP COM PROTON <br> This instruction will last a few minutes. When the process ends, you will have a '''MicroSD card with the latest software''' on it.  Finally plug the MicroSD card into IGEP Processor Board and power up your board.  <br> Forum}}
