10First, configure Buildroot for your i.MX6ULL EVK board:
11
12In order to to do so there are two supported options:
13
14  make freescale_imx6ullevk_defconfig
15
16if you plan to use NXP provided U-Boot and kernel.
17
18or
19
20  make imx6ullevk_defconfig
21
22if you plan to use mainline U-Boot and mainline kernel.
23
24Build all components:
25
26  make
27
28You will find in output/images/ the following files:
29  - boot.vfat
30  - imx6ull-14x14-evk.dtb
31  - rootfs.ext2
32  - rootfs.ext4
33  - rootfs.tar
34  - sdcard.img
35  - u-boot.bin

39Create a bootable SD card
40=========================
41
42To determine the device associated to the SD card have a look in the
43/proc/partitions file:
44
45  cat /proc/partitions
46
47Buildroot prepares a bootable "sdcard.img" image in the output/images/
48directory, ready to be dumped on a SD card. Launch the following
49command as root:
50
51  dd if=./output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/<your-sd-device>
52
53*** WARNING! This will destroy all the card content. Use with care! ***

55For details about the medium image layout, see the definition in
56board/freescale/common/imx/genimage.cfg.template.
