Configure base board and external hardware#

Select peripherals support and display (i.MX8)#

Following peripheral overlays are supported

To configure those you’ll find on your SDCard a file called uEnv.txt that will hold any custom u-boot setting.

To change the peripheral support settings add or change the line

fdt_overlay=<overlay 1> <overlay 2>...

for example

fdt_overlay=overlay-baseboard-ep5.dtb overlay-lvds-ama-101a01.dtb

would activate support for EP5 carrier board and an AMA101(A01) display. The file can be edited with any ordinary text editor on your computer.

To apply

  • insert the SDCard again

  • power up the board again

Select peripherals support and display (Intel SOM)#

The display panel and peripherals must be set in the UEFI configuration. Please refer to your module documentation for details.
