Yocto SDK Build Issues and Hardware Target Clarification for i.MX6SXSabresd

Ajay333 — Wed, 23 Apr 2025 12:47:16 GMT

Dear NXP Community,

We are currently trying to build the Yocto SDK using the following manifest:
repo init -u https://github.com/nxp-imx/imx-manifest -b imx-linux-rocko -m imx-4.9.88-2.0.0_ga.xml ,Our goal is to generate an SDK for what we believe is the i.MX6SX SABRESD platform, based on the guidelines in the https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/user-guide/IMXLXYOCTOUG.pdf However, we are not entirely certain about the exact model or board configuration, and we may also be missing steps or using an incorrect setup procedure. The SoC part number and board markings we have are:
MCIMX6X4AVM08AB
CTAB2114
MRT_SYS_EVB V3
While following the build process, we encountered several Python compatibility errors — particularly with deprecated collections imports.

Our build environment is:

Host OS: Ubuntu 22.04
Python: 3.8
GCC: 11.4.0

We would appreciate guidance on the following:

Could you help us confirm if we’re targeting the correct board/model with this manifest and setup?
Are the steps we're following correct for this hardware?
What host OS, Python, and GCC versions are validated for imx-4.9.88-2.0.0_ga.

Hi @Ajay333

For the release, we can see the recommended version for build host. The required packages as well as its version should be compatible to the version of that build host.

I'd recommend not build the release, as it is very old and some sources might not be available.

There is also a reference - Yocto build You can try to switch to newer release to build the SDK.

Regards

Harvey
