The images that are currently available for the bblue and x86-rt can be downloaded from the meta-ost Gitlab package registry.
Please note, that these images are built for development, see Development vs Production. For production images you have to built it with a full yocto installation, see Setup and Building or use the eSDK, see SDK's.

Images can also be fetched directly over Toradex Easy Installer. Add the following feed:
https://wiki.bu.ost.ch/infoportal/_media/software/linux/images/image_list.json
Linux script example for .wic
image flashing onto an external storage device, e.g. an external SD card (Beware: sdb
has to be replaced with the correct device (use lsblk
command to discover the correct device)!):
#!/bin/sh umount /dev/sdb* wipefs -a /dev/sdb dd if=ost-ros-image-melodic-bblue.wic of=/dev/sdb bs=1M status=progress eject /dev/sdb
The SDK can be downloaded directly from Gitlab (see downloads) and do not need to be extracted any further.
The images however are provided in gzipped
and need to be decompressed using gunzip
befire use:
gunzip ost-image-*.wic.gz
Note that gunzip
will remove the original .wic.gz
file and as such only the .wic
file will be available after. gzip
and gunzip
should come preinstalled on most distributions, otherwise search for the gzip
package in your distro's repositories.
Images and SDKs in the tar.xz
format can be extracted using the 'tar' command.
tar -vxJf <filename>
For example, to extract the Beaglebone Blue SDK provided below, use the following command in your Downloads
folder:
tar -vxJf ntb-dev-image-2020.02.21-sdk.tar.xz
The process for installing images is dependent on the target hardware. Hence, see section „Installing Images“ in
Custom Images can be built by folliwing the getting started guide up to and including „Building an Image“.
This step is optional and only needed if the images need to be in the same format as the images provided on the downloads page
The following command can be used to create tar.xz
archives like provided above:
tar -C <path to target> -cvhJf ntb-dev-image-2020.02.21.tar.xz <target file/folder>
For example:
tar -C tmp/deploy/images/ -cvhJf ntb-dev-image-2020.02.21.tar.xz bblue
ntb-dev-image-1.0-rc0.tar.xz
now contains a directory called bblue (since bblue was a folder originally) and all its content.
If one was to use tar -C tmp/deploy -cJf ntb-dev-image-2020.02.21.tar.xz images/bblue
, the archive would contain an images
folder with bblue
inside it.
