QSMP-1351¶
Build and flash quick guide
This is a summary of the steps to create images with Yocto and then flash the module with it. Just copy&paste the commands. The whole process usually takes less than 10 minutes.
1. Check System requirements - Supported Linux Distributions
Refer to Yocto Scarthgap Reference Manual - System Requirements for details
Ubuntu 23.04 |
Ubuntu 22.04 (LTS) |
Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) |
Debian GNU/Linux 12 (Bookworm) |
Debian GNU/Linux 11 (Bullseye) |
Debian 10 |

2. Host PC
Use either a Linux PC or Linux on Windows with WSL
3. Install required packages
Refer to Yocto Scarthgap Reference Manual - Required Packages for details
sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential chrpath cpio debianutils diffstat file gawk gcc git \
iputils-ping libacl1 liblz4-tool locales python3 python3-git python3-jinja2 python3-pexpect \
python3-pip python3-subunit socat texinfo unzip wget xz-utils zstd \
sudo locale-gen en_US.UTF-8
sudo apt install python-is-python3
4. Setup Git
Refer to BSP Setup for details
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "Your Email"
5. Setup Repo
Refer to BSP Setup for details
mkdir ~/bin
curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
export PATH=~/bin:$PATH
6. Setup BSP
Refer to BSP Setup for details
mkdir karo-bsp;cd karo-bsp
repo init -u https://github.com/karo-electronics/karo-bsp -b scarthgap
repo sync
7. Setup Build Directory
Refer to Setup Build Directory for details
KARO_BASEBOARD is optional. Possible values are: qsbase1, qsbase2, qsbase4, qsqlyn1
KARO_BASEBOARD=qsbase4
DISTRO=karo-minimal MACHINE=qsmp-1351 source karo-setup-release.sh -b build-qsmp-1351
9. Flash the module
Start fastboot from U-Boot manually.
fastboot usb 0
Only if the above is not possible
U-Boot in fastboot mode can also be started via USB from DFU mode
Close the Bootmode Jumper (Enabling USB-Bootmode) - Reset the Board
sudo apt install dfu-util
bash tmp/deploy/images/qsmp-1351/karo-image-${image}/start-fastboot.sh
Only for Linux on Windows with WSL
Refer to Linux on Windows with WSL -> Connect USB devices
Windows uuu.exe fails. Use WSL and attach the USB device to it.
Open a Windows command shell with administrator permissions. Get the {busid} of the download gadget and attach it.
usbipd list
usbipd bind --busid {busid}
usbipd attach --wsl --busid {busid}
cd tmp/deploy/images/qsmp-1351/karo-image-minimal
wget https://github.com/nxp-imx/mfgtools/releases/download/uuu_1.5.141/uuu
chmod a+x uuu
sudo ./uuu -v
If programming fails, simply retry uuu without resetting the board.
