Any commercially available external storage of 4GB (or larger) may be used for the installation.<br /> * Download the Yocto Linux archive from [https://www.compulab.com/products/iot-gateways/iot-link-industrial-iot-gateway/#devres CompuLab website].<br /> * Unzip the package to a directory on the host workstation. From now we assume the device name is {{filename|pakage_dir}}.<br /> * The Yocto Linux image file, mentioned below, can be found in the {{filename|images}} subdirectory. <br /> * Plug the external storage to the host machine. From now we assume the device name of the external storage on your Linux PC is {{filename|/dev/sdX}}.<br /> <br /> == Installation ==<br /> * Flash the image file to the external storage:<br /> &lt;pre&gt;<br /> zstd -dc *.wic.zst | sudo dd bs=1M status=progress of=/dev/sdX<br /> &lt;/pre&gt;<br /> <br /> == Run Yocto Linux image ==<br /> * Plug the external storage to the target<br /> * Hard reset the system to boot from external storage<br /> <br /> [[Category:Linux]]<br /> [[Category:Yocto]]<br /> [[Category:IOT-LINK]]</div>
