2. Image Devel pment
This secti n explains the setup requirements f r b ting fr m a Micr SD card r the SPI
ROM. A prec mpiled image is pr vided in the “EVK” f lder f the BSP.
2.1. B ting fr m a Micr SD Card
The via-image-gui-imx6qsm8q60.sdcard image all ws the b ard t run entirely fr m a
Micr SD card.
The first step is t c py this image nt a Micr SD card. Insert a Micr SD card int
y ur Linux h st machine and make sure it is n t m unted. C py the SD Card image nt
the Micr SD card with the c mmand bel w, replacing <device name> with the c rrect
value f r the card, f r example “sdb”.
Imp rtant: Make sure y u are writing t the c rrect device r the h st system
envir nment c uld be damaged.
$ sudo dd if=via-image-gui-imx6qsm8q60.sdcard of=/dev/<device name> bs=1M conv=fsync
Next, n the QSM-8Q60, set the Micr SD/SPI b t select jumper (J11) t the Micr SD
p siti n as sh wn bel w.

Insert the prepared Micr SD card int the QSM-8Q60, c nnect the HDMI display t the
QSMDB2 carrier b ard, and p wer n the device t initiate the b t pr cess.
When the b t pr cess is c mpleted, y u will see the OpenEmbedded deskt p.
