Under Linux, insert a SD-card media and use igep-media-create script to copy the image to SD-card media.
$ ./igep-media-create --mmc <mmc> --image ../../demo-image-camera-igep00x0-2012111220140206.tar.bz2 \ --machine <machine> --buddy camr0010camr00x0
where,
This should give you a bootable SD-card.
 
Now that you have the SD-card created you should configure the system for your sensor. To do that, just mount the boot partition of the SD-card and edit the igep.ini file, after the buddy=camr00x0 line, add the sensor type appending :
 
camr00x0.sensor=mt9v034
 
or
 
camr00x0.sensor=mt9p031
 
Finally, umount and eject the SD-card safely.
Insert the SD-card media into the micro-SD card socket of IGEP processor board and power on it. This should result in a running system with a serial login link.
Prompt into the login using the root account.
