cd igep_firmware-yocto-*</pre>
Insert a SD-Card media and use the igep-media-create script to copy the firmware to SD-Card media.
<pre>./igep-media-create -–mmc &lt;mmc&gt; --image &lt;image file&gt; --machine <machine></pre>
where:<br>&lt;mmc&gt; - is the SD-Card device of your computer.<br>&lt;image file&gt; - is the file that contains bootloader, kernel and rootfs image.<br>&lt;machine&gt; - is the IGEP Processor Board. Available options are:
*igep0030 - For IGEP COM MODULE Processor Board
*igep0032 - For IGEP COM PROTON Processor Board
*igep0033 - For IGEP COM AQUILA Processor Board
*igep0046 - For IGEP iMX6 Processor Board
 
For example, assuming the 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>
This should give you a bootable For example, assuming the SD-card.device takes '/dev/sdb' and you have an IGEP COM&nbsp;MODULE ('igep0030'), type<br><brpre>./igep-media-create --mmc /dev/sdb --machine igep0030 --image demo-image-sato-igep00x0.tar.bz2<br><br/pre>These methods should give you a bootable SD-card. <br>
Now, lets create the MicroSD card with the latest firmware. Before it, you have to know '''which 'device' is the MicroSD listed in the /dev/ directory''', a directory where the detected devices are listed by the Linux system. <br>
To '''know the Booting IGEP device nameand login/connect methods''', follow this instructions:
'''Insert your MicroSD the bootable SD-card''' media into the Linux host machine (the machine where you have downloaded the firmware)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.
In your Terminal session, run If you want login in/connect to the following '''system command''', you have several options: <br>
dmesg*'''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> *'''Wifi''', connect to IGEP_xx network, a dynamic 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
This instruction will prompt all the The root password is empty, so to log in type ''''root'system traces'''. If your MicroSD card has actually been detected by for the system, 'user name and hit 'Enter'at the last lines of that Password prompt: (''empty password'' will correspond to the MicroSD card detection ) and mountingyou should be in. <br>
Check the '''MicroSD name and path'''Then, for example: /dev/sdb you could play and remember itfun with IGEP&nbsp;board.
Now For example, you can '''run could flash the following script''' in latest software image into internal FLASH memory ( [http://labs.isee.biz/index.php/How_to_flash_the_latest_software_image How to flash the directory you have just extracted, and you will have to add some parameters. In your Terminal session, type: latest software image] )
<br>
./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> {{Message/Forum}}
