22 make freescale_imx6qsabresd_defconfig
24 For i.MX6DL SABRE SD board:
26 make freescale_imx6dlsabresd_defconfig
28 For i.MX6Q SABRE Auto board:
30 make freescale_imx6qsabreauto_defconfig
32 For i.MX6DL SABRE Auto board:
34 make freescale_imx6dlsabreauto_defconfig
40 You will find in ./output/images/ the following files:

48 Create a bootable SD card
49 =========================
51 To determine the device associated to the SD card have a look in the
52 /proc/partitions file:
56 Run the following script as root on your SD card. This will partition the card
57 and copy the bootloader, kernel, DTBs and root filesystem as needed.
59 *** WARNING! The script will destroy all the card content. Use with care! ***
61 ./board/freescale/create-boot-sd.sh <your-sd-device>
69 To boot your newly created system on a SABRE SD Board (refer to the SABRE SD
70 Quick Start Guide for guidance):
71 - insert the SD card in the SD3 slot of the board;
72 - locate the BOOT dip switches (SW6), set dips 2 and 7 to ON, all others to OFF;
73 - connect a Micro USB cable to Debug Port and connect using a terminal emulator
80 To boot your newly created system on a SABRE Auto Board (refer to the SABRE for
81 Automotive Infotainment Quick Start Guide for guidance):
82 - insert the SD card in the CPU card SD card socket J14;
83 - Set the S1, S2 and S3 DIP switches and J3 jumper to boot from SD on CPU card.
84 Reference configuration:
88 off ON off off ON off off off off off
100 - connect an RS-232 UART cable to CPU card debug port J18 UART DB9 and
101 connect using a terminal emulator at 115200 bps, 8n1;
